I personally think it looks like some kind of tumor on the car.

i say leave it off.. if you need to, just do another layer of tint on the rear. that would make both its function and apperance rather pointless.

Well unless your loaded forget everything about SLP

I was stuck on SLP @ first too, but too many sponsors on here have better products, more choices, & better pricing. Not to mention better, faster shipping & good customer service.

As far as the shade, I gotta say it would look better without it, but if YOU dig it keep it. Its all about what you like, not us.

I don't know whats with all the mod hate, but I like it.

So I vote to leave it, thats not something you see alot of, and in my opinion original is better.
not to mention the obvious bonus's of reduced heat / shade / w/e

Saves me from seeing the same thing over and over and over, in different colors
