Yea, I put my clears and blue leds for the first time yesterday and was blown at how bright blue they look... wasn't expecting it.

I've had my blue strip for over a month and no problem (probably cause once my headlights go on they blend in/can't tell). But the clears are a different story now...

 

There's some stuff that you have to take into account though.. Cali has the largest population in the US by a long shot.

Also the majority of the other states besides some states on the east coast don't care much for tuners.

 

You got that right. Most people in Bama are muscle car for life. You'll get your occasional fart canon rider here and there. But muscle car is really strong in the south.
