Maybe 20 odd years ago myBIL and his mates got hold of an old holden and painted Bastard Squad down the side. They attached a roof rack and covered it with blue and red tape. Oh the fun they had in Arrowtown.

Well now I see you are serious,thought it was a piss take too start with.
If you go to police and check the finer details as to what you can and cannot do,You should be good to go on the idea.

Can anyone confirm this! I know that its illegal to have red or blue visible 'lights', as in illuminated. Not blue or red plastic on a light rack that doesnt go.If this is the case then i could probably get away with clear lights or even a orange hazard one.

Buy a Ferrari 250GTO and keep it totally standard.

Thought you might have done some research yourself first.Objections could be raised under "Cosmetic Lighting" - if they work.

Look here to start :

http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/rules/vehicle-lighting-2004.html and
http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/rules/vehicle-lighting-2004-qa.html

or

http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/get-your-lights-right/get-your-lights-right.html#cosmetic and even
http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/rules/road-user-amendment-2009-qa.html#12

But none of these say whether they are illegal for the purpose you state - could be a reason for the HP to ticket you.
