Default Do we like or not?...

I like the fuel rail covers from aat(advanced automotive techology) the vintage '60 style ones, I know they been out for a while now but I have a much better career now and I can put alittle more money in to my vette now a days, anyway have I missed the bus on this one and thats sooo last year or are they still "in"?

I don't think they are last year, I think they are in the 60s, and need to stay on 60s cars.

I think they look good. A nice update to a classic look. Pricey though...

Those fuel rail covers look out of place. I think you need to add some 58 chrome spears behind the back window.
