thanks, does it improve the look alot, or is it another "mod"..lol

my dad didnt like it quite as much as i did, and he says it looks the same. i say it makes it look like sportier, more of a meaner look. im not done yet though. im gonna add a total blackout kit to my car.

Default Question?

It looks really sweet from the rear.

How well does it blend in with the rear facia. What I mean is does it lay flat or when you look at it from the side or top does it stick out a little with the lip on it? I just wonder if this looks better or worse then painting it out instead of using the overlay.

Thanks

Looks good! Like you said, it definitely looks meaner. Now get bigger exhaust tips!

Btw, which part of LA are you from?

well, i must say you got it alot cheaper than what the auction is normally going for ($380+), and I was tempted to bid, but it's just too much corvette tax for me(I'm a cheap ba$tard), but I hope it looks great, and please post pics when you get it installed!

Yeah, I thought the price included the hot chick installer. We may have a case of false advertising here....
