You guys and your bling bling, personally I think it would look better all painted the same color as the body.
holy clearcoat failure!
the 88-89 have crome too.. though it's just one strip along the top (u can see it in my sig)
the problem with swapping in the 86/87 grille is the plastic sides dont match the eyelids or the corners
you can always just replace them.Originally Posted by frantik

interesting stuff, this feature about our cars is really part of the uniquness of it. the blacked out look is eye catching if the car is the right color, like white
The carbon fiber look of the 86-87 is cool, but I would like to see some body cover them in another graphic with vinyl, like for example the nascar or nhra type cars with the vinyl headlights , You all have seen the camoflage vinyl people cover there guns, truck trim, and stuff with. this same stuff can be used to create any graphic you please.
Dam I just thunk this shit up... I am going to look into it!!!
go and do that i bet some one would buy it
