Looks great. Personally, I think the car's color has a lot to do with whether or not I like the tail light treatment. And it looks good on MSG.
Congrats.

MY taste does not mean they are not nice..... IM sure many people will like them... the one thing going for them is that they are suttle...only because of the color of the car... I think they ok on your car...

I prefer to keep it simple. Too much stuff in the back just makes it look too "busy" IMO. But if you like it go for it!

On the silver car they fit right in, I use black ones on a black car. The whole thing is they are there but not screaming at everyone to look at them. If you put on yellow or red ones it would be a disaster.

I'm not a big fan of them, but I have to say they do look good on your car.

I've never been a huge fan of the louvers. But I know a lot of folks like them.
I went w/ a black out program instead.

I like body color grills; have 'em on my car, but the chrome/billet look is too...busy. For ME, it's a bit much but then it isn't my car is it?
