Nice kit. Looks like you did it neatly and professionally. Clean install.

I think I read in another thread that he has a 48" LED strip behind his seats.

Been a big fan of under body neon since the early 90's! Good choice with the purple.

If you don't mind a little critique…

I'd say you should add some neon in the area behind the wheels, that way the glow would connect the entire way around the car and not be interrupted.

Just my two cents…

Did you install it yourself or did you have to go to a shop in order to get them on your car?

Not usually a fan of neon but that looks good.

The choice of color and the evenness and coverage of light does the trick.
