and well they should be... :thumbsup:
I'm not sure that they are illegal in Pennsylvania. Luminophore is a safe material, it is not rad. So it can't be illegal.

i think it looks horrible on any car, it should be illegal and if anyone does it they should also be legally obliged to have their face painted the same and only be allowed out at night :rofl: :P
