much like the:
exhaust filler plates
valve stem caps
floor mats
cargo mats
cargo cover
license plate frame

......catch my drift? To each their own. What some think are cool, others will think the opposite. The OP didn't ask for opinions, he asked for a picture.

check the legality of it first. Some states will write you for it. In VA., they are illegal. My wifes 97 Firehawk came from slp egnineering with an "SLP Engineering" windshield decal in silver...state boy wrote her for it. We took it to court..with paperwork from slp showing it came on the car, they dropped the charges and still made us remove it (thought they did anyway..LOL)

Thanks everyone.
I agree with with both sides of the fence, some cars it looks good (above) and others it didnt.
If I were to do it, it would be subtle hence the black on black.
