Yes its ugly. If I wanted a 80's look, I'd buy an 80's car.

I didn't say it looked good on 80's cars, I just thought the idea died and people got over them. BTW what are they called?

Painted to match their not bad, they make the car cooler inside, as they keep the sun out of it. They dont upstruct view too much....

I don't think it looks right on 4gens, I still see them every once in a while on a 3rd gen camaro.

We now have a miraculous product known as window tint. It keeps the car cooler, doesnt obstruct the view of the driver very much and it looks good.
Just thought that you would like to know.
