They were on my car when I bought it. It made the car look cheap, phoney, and cheezy so I took them off and threw them away.

Having said that, I think I saw them in an Ecklers catalog not too long ago.

I have a brand new front set I'll sell you for $30 shipped.
At MidAmerica they are $35 + 8 shipping.
They look like this:

Wouldn't you want to fix the problem and be done with it rather than cover it up? Expecially if there's water in them.

gts sells a nice set of blackouts (front and rear). I got mine from a local speed shop this spring. I love the way that they look. they really clean up the car nicely esp. the front of the car.
