These posts would be better suited for the other car thread in SS.
IMO, this thread is more for serious questions about car stuff (being in the grown up section, and all).

I would say it's fine here, but the screenshots thread would be more fitting. Nothing wrong with wanting to show off your car.
All those lights would drive me nuts though. I want the interior as dim as possible while still being able to clearly see what I need to. Hell, I'm glad everything in my old Civic is in orange instead of blue or white.

A lot of people don't know that LED strips are cheap as fuck, so they consider it high end luxury.
Same shit with screens replacing traditional (quality) gauges and buttons.

The vast majority of my driving is at night, so being able to dial down the brightness is a big deal to me. I have my phone mounted on the dash running android auto and sometimes that annoys me because the minimum brightness is still a little too bright.
When I replace the Civic in a few years I'll definitely be looking for something with a minimum of interior lighting and a small in dash display if it even has one.

The RAM letters cost the most at just under $60, those kits aren’t expensive at all. The only thing I didn’t do myself was the blacking out the face of the RAM letters, had the guy that tinted the headlights and taillights do that. The fiber optic kit, the chase under glow, grill tap, led RAM letters I did the install myself. All for under $200, I love LED lights and I’m not done yet either. I plan to install rock lights under the wheel wells and some daylight running lights above the headlights that also chase. Tonneau cover comes this week as well, going to remove the blacked out dodge emblem on the tailgate and put the big black RAM letters in its place. Going to to the doors like this but black and instead of Rebel have it say Warlock.

I'm sorry, I didn't know you actually did this to your own car.
It is a bit much for most people, maybe try sticking to one color for the presentation.

I love the color changing/chase it’s my favorite, if you ever saw the movie fire in the sky the Travis Waldon story where he gets out and walks towards the UFO that would be my dumb ass if it had fancy lights lol.

Seems like I bought my car just before everything went tits up as far as inventory goes. Was Jan 2020, got a 2018 Mini Cooper S. Just paid it off in full last month, and no plans to replace it for at least another 5-10 years. The only things that light up while driving are the fuel/instruments panel and the radio/navigation/rear camera panel. In the future when cars are self driving I would be cool with interior being lit up so I could read and stuff, but otherwise it's too much glare for me.

Only thing that even remotely bothers me is the music mode on the floorboard lights, if they flash red and blue a few times I think I’m being pulled over.
