Looks cheesy and ricey. They do not improve the stock look of the car.

What kind of MOD is that?

I had that same kit on my 98 vert when I got her about 2 months ago...at the time I thought they were a bit ricey too. Took them off for a week and didn't like the plain look of Red on Red. I have a Torch Red. So I put them back on. IMHO...I like them.....for now. Modding is such an addiction...damn it. Have fun with it!
