Default Black out

Just completed installing one of my fathers day gift. Blackout kit from G5 creations. Was a simple install and here are some pics. Now I need some black mesh racing grills to complete the look I want.

Looks great.

If I may recommend, it would look even better IMHO if you got something barker instead of the chrome corvette lettering.

That is just my opinion, so take it for what it is worth. Looks good.
