I'm guessing $$$$$ or florescent graphics and black lights somewhere? Or glow in the dark graphics.

I'm pretty sure it's the same reflective vinly the cops have on their cruisers.

It's not the reflective vinyl the cops use... there isn't enough light (if any) around the car to cause it to light up like that.

There's no other visible light source shining on the car. Then there's also the fact that it looks more like it's glowing than reflecting.

yeah i saw that stuff online somewhere. Its just tape that lights up. Last I looked that stuff wasnt out yet, but that was like a year ago. Just check around the places that sell neon lights specifically, they should sell it or know where to get them at.

They sell a kit that lights up any decal. Not sure if it is the same one but it is still pretty cool tho.

I'm sure everybody has seen those glow-in-the-dark stickers that are all over kid's room's ceilings??? Little stars and moons? It could be that material... :)

The adhesive in that material is too strong... it will do horrible things to a paint job and is a pain in the a$$ to take off....

Did anybody ever see House of Kolor's Kosmic Glow in person. It's supposed to glow in the dark.
