Hi SK - there are so many around it is hard to choose. Officially red neons can only show to the rear of the car. Personally my fave is blue pulsing neons and this should look good under a red car, but I see nothing wrong particularly with LEDS under the car it just gives a different effect.

Mind you, they are nothing new. Back in the 70s one of the custom crazes was to jack the rear end up and light up the axle, usually with red fog lamps (LEDs and Neons didn't exist).
