I like the looks either way, but if your happy, that's what counts. Nice car you have.

In the second photo, it looks like something's missing.

Hey, can I have your old, discarded BSM's? I may want to put them on my car.

I think the BSM's are a tacky GM addon. If I wanted extra ridges, I wouldnt have sold my TA. Looks waaaaaay smoother!

I think it looks better with them. It makes the car look sleeker and longer.

But, each of us has our own opinions.

Enjoy the new look.

After GM came out with the BSM's they did a wind tunnel flow analysis and found that the BSM's promote more laminar flow over the sides!
