Default CF Sail Panel on Pewter Cars from 6LE?? Pics??

My factory sail panel is getting worse and worse with more bubbles appearing. I've been contemplating going with CF from 6LE. I've seen some pictures on these forums but not really anything on pewter cars.

I have my hood scoop painted gloss, berger panel is gloss so wasn't sure how CF would look. I just don't know if these panels looks cheesy like fake CF does.

Please post pics of your CF sail panel?

Thanks in advance.

I've just received mine & targa top which I plan on replacing my hardtop.
I haven't fully opened the packing because I won't be able to install it now till next year, but I did pull part of it open to have a peak & I can tell you they look feckin cool.
I'd say go for it, you don't have to prep like fiberglass & if you really don't like it just paint it.

I only have two and their not that great. But, here you go.





These were taken at Coffee and Cars in Oklahoma City. Thunder up!

Edit: It looks like you have the same set up as me, but pewter. I have a CF sail panel on my car if you want some pictures of those. PM me if you're interested.

The current issue of Camaro Performers has a big article on installing a black sail panel on a 2001 Camaro and they have good directions.
