I like it, and I don't like much. Up here in NYS, we have to be careful of the lights shining on the ground when moving. I asked my son-in-law about that b/c he's a state trooper, and he said it depends on the trooper; but, that's here in NYS, and of course there are others from NYS that say the opposite. In any case, I like the effect of yours.
They are getting wild with all the led lighting and the legal issue is getting tough. Mostly colors like emergency vehicles (reds and blues) but I think yours is fine as long as it is not flashing......

Would be cool if it could project a Spyder or a spider on the road.

Remember, you did ask for honest opinions... sorry, not a fan. I would go with a high mounted taillight if your looking for more light for the back of your Spyder.

Whaaaatt?!?! How dare you give me your honest opinion when I asked for it when that opinion is not what I was hoping for?!? Just kidding! I really do appreciate the honesty. I put it on not so much to increase the visibility, but thought it would a little individuality to my Spyder and more to add to the "coolness" factor of the Spyder....sometimes it takes a second (or third) set of eyes to see it might not be as good as I might think. My wife thinks it's kinda silly looking...I will be filing for divorce soon.
Kind of over the top. I hope it is not illegal. Does look cool.

If I never did or got anything my wife thought was silly, I wouldn't have ANYTHING of my own! (she doesn't read SL, so don't tell her I said that!)

I'd have to drive behind you at night a few blocks........to see how distracting it might be.
And then, if this is a REAL laser you might want to be concerned about the power output and whether or not it is legal to use in this kind of application.
A high powered laser that accidentally hits something reflective can injure people nearby (eyes mostly).
Laser ground effects?
