Yes.  I'll be wrapping my roof rack, and possible putting a mini lighted tree on my roof.

Technically, yes.

I think if you went with all amber lights it would be legal.

But, I see so many o those around i have to assume its sort of  a minor risk.

It seems like every time I see Christmas lights on a fucking car, it's a Subaru with some yuppy asshat behind the wheel.   OP, I would never assume that you're an asshat, but please tell me you don't drive a Subaru!

Lol.  Sorry to be so outspoken, I just don't like the idea.   I am wondering though, why is it always a Subaru?  Is it a "thing" on the Suby boards or something?

I honestly couldn't tell ya.  The only Subaru board I go to (And it's rather infrequent) is a local one. 


And I thought your outspokenness was absolutely hilarious.

I think red is a bigger issue than blue.

I guess if viewed from the front red is an issue.  Maybe I'll go with just white and some garland or w/e it's called.

The what the hell is garland?  Are you planning on decorating your car with Dorothy's corpse?

LOL I had the idea to wrap my car in Christmas lights as well. Except I don't have a roof rack to put them on.
