I could never understand the desire to decorate anything with a skull and cross bones!! That has to be the worst possible choice --- maybe the next craze will be stainless steel horse manure. I saw a Harley Davidson that had over 100 skulls on virtually every surface of the motorcycle. It was FUGLEY and the owner absolutey loved it. To each his own.

I'm anxiously awaiting the buxom, leaning back chrome lady edition taillight covers. They would add that highly coveted touch of class we all seek, don't you think? Seriously, I'm not a fan of taillight covers but others obviously like them--life goes on.

That's what I thought too. "Halloween Specials"

What's even worse, the guy goes to the trouble (and expense) of buying and installing pefectly good Euros and then covers them up with that crap!

PT Barnum was soooo right.

I went a different route with flush mount taillights. No pirates allowed....

Looks great on his car!

I'm just glad production has stopped on this item, eliminating any temptation to buy a set and put it in the bottom of my tool box.

I thought about that after I posted the pic.

While it's not my cup of tea, guess the guy liked the way they look on his car.

And Taryn, I actually think your red wheels look good on your car.

They go well with 'caliper covers, and 'wheelskins' for that 'I'm a Corvette modder'.
