What is the Christmas lights car trend?
Every December drivers wrap their cars in string lights and post them on TikTok, and every December police remind them that flashing or red-and-blue lights are not allowed on the road. The AI version gives you the same holiday card shot from one photo, with nothing to wire and nothing to get pulled over for.
Snowy cabin
Warm-white lights on the roofline, windows and mirrors, parked in the snow by a lit log cabin at blue hour.
Retro multicolor
Big red, green, blue and amber bulbs bumper to roof, a wreath on the grille, in your snowy driveway at night.
You + your car
A holiday card portrait: you in a winter coat in front, your lit-up car behind you in the snow.
Photo tips for the best result
Whole car, front three-quarter
Front and one side in view, wheels to roof. That is the angle the lights read best from.
Daylight, even light
So the paint colour, wheels, wrap and mods are easy to see. The snow and the dusk are added for you.
One car, nothing in front
Crop out other cars and people, or the wrong car may end up in the snow.
What it can and cannot do
Your car stays your car
Shape, colour, wheels and mods come from your photo. Small details like badges or stickers can drift; check before you share.
Plate comes out blank
The number plate is drawn as a plain panel and no logos or lettering are added.
A picture, not a wiring plan
It does not tell you how many strands to buy or whether real lights are legal where you drive.

How do I put Christmas lights on my car in a photo?
Upload one daylight photo of your car, pick a look like Snowy cabin or Retro multicolor and press Make my photo. The lights, snow and night sky are added for you; the car keeps its own shape, colour and wheels.
Can I be in the photo with my car?
Yes. Pick You + your car and add a clear, front-facing photo of yourself as well. You stand in a winter coat in front, your lit-up car behind you.
What happens to my number plate?
It comes out as a blank panel, so you can post the photo without showing your registration. No badges or logos are added.
Is it legal to put real Christmas lights on a car?
It depends where you drive. In December 2024 police in Miami, Wyoming and Pennsylvania warned drivers about it; flashing lights and red or blue lights are the usual problem. Check your local rules before wiring the real thing. The AI photo needs no lights at all.
Can I change the lights or the background?
Yes. Type your own direction in the prompt box, like "red and green lights only" or "parked in front of a Christmas market", and it is added to the look on your next Generate at the same 10 credits.
How much does it cost?
A new account gets 10 free credits, which make one watermarked 1K photo. After that each photo costs 10 credits and comes out at 2K with no watermark; the cost shows on the button before you generate. Pick ×2 or ×4 to get several variations at 10 credits each. If an image fails on our side it is retried once and then the credits are refunded automatically.
Which sizes can I download?
Pick Portrait 4:5, Square 1:1, Story 9:16 or Landscape 16:9 before you generate. Portrait suits Instagram; Story suits TikTok and Reels.
What happens to the photos I upload?
Uploads are private and used only to make your picture. Uploaded photos are deleted after 24 hours. Results stay in My photos until you delete them.
