Default Heard of a bowtie that lights up?

i was driving down 225 in pasadena Tx, ans saw a clean nbs rcsb. it was white lowered, had hids, and the bowtie on the grill was glowing blue, it kind of matched the hids.

i liked it. anyone seen this before?

I bet he made it.
There are little glow strips you can buy for your keyboard and case to your PC. He likely hooked one up and ran it around the bow tie.

Seen them somewhere online a long time ago. Looked like a stock bowtie until lit up. Don't think they were blue or any color at the time, but thats not to say they couldn't be changed.

Sounds like it's easy to do. IIRC the emblem is clear with a gold design painted on the back. you would sand the paint off and put LED's Behind it.

Or you can get on Ebay and the interwebs and try to buy one.
