Prom

This saturday there's somthing like a junior prom coming up that i'm going to. I have a date and i was wondering what you all did for your prom, i want to do somthing fun and unique. I'm getting her flowers and a corsage, anything else you can think of that is a must, i also wanted to put somthing on my truck to impress people, since each year there's kindof a competition of who has the coolest ride, some people show up in campers, tractors, semi's, limo's and such, i just wanted to make the truck look unique, i was thinking of maybe a strobe light or somthing in the grill, among other things. I just need some ideas. thanks.

(I know i allready asked this question in the ranger forms, but i figured it'd get more attention here)

1)Decorate it with Chrstmas Lights.

2) Cover it with cellophane.

for my prom, last spring, i also tried to do something cool. i had a kickin stereo so i made sure to have a good bass cd in. (alot of girls in my school like the kickin systems ) then back around my subs i had 2 12" blacklights, and 2 15" blue neons that beat to the bass. my date thought it was kinda cool. now i gotta think of something cool for next year, if i go that is.

lol for prom I think me and my buddies who go (with dates of course) will probably get a pickuptruck limo cause everyone from school knows us as 'the truckers' (cause well all drive trucks)

lmao should be pretty cool, we might just drive our own rides anyways but, who knows, long ways away for me!

I could send you a pair of my wife's undies and you could slip them over the hood of your truck. I am assuming you have a full size hood mind you, or they will not be stretched tight enough and might blow off, causing a accident.

THAT would deffinantly draw ALOT of attention....HAHA, Oh man that would be hillarious. I think i'm going to stick to strobe lights and dixie horns though. So far i'm ordering 3 strobe lights, 2 red and 1 blue, i will put those in the grill, then 2 mini strobes, 1/each headlight, i will wire them all up to 1 relay and use 1 switch to turn them all on, but i dont want them flashing at the same time, is there any trick to delay the flashes, the ones in the grill are preset to 2 flashes per second, i want the 2 red to flash, then the blue inbetween the red flashes, is there any way i can do this with use of somthing other than an 80 dollar control module, somthing to delay the power to the blue for half a second, like a resistor or somthing?
