Default Would You Put These On Your Trans Am?

I bought these Chrome Trans Am door sills, and i am kinda partial to them. I dunno if i like them or not yet. I did a mock up of them with them on, but i could not get a good idea b/c the sun was blinding me.

So what do you think??

Yes, they look like very good quality peices and would give your car some more personality. Go for it! They look nice

Well, to be honest, they are made out of like a plasticy, sort of metal thingy.. i can not even tell you what they are made of. it is not like it is aluminum or metal....

But they do shine pretty good

They look chrome enough to me! I say put them on with velcro or whatever and if you don't like them then sell them, because I bet someone else will like them....just do a trial run

Lay them on the door sills but don't stick them down yet. Take a pic of it. They kinda look small.

I've seen those before and was interested in what they ACTUALLY look like on our cars.

The backing is lined with double sided tape. So once there on, there on.

Just set them up there and see if you like them...if you dont sell them to me. If you do like them post a pic and I will order me a set (probably the WS6 ones).

Seriously I am not sure how long they will good on a daily driver. I am sure they will scuff VERY easy unless you are exctra carefull, but I think on a show car with a lot of chrome already they would look great IF they fit right (thats why I would love to see a pic of them actually installed....SO HURRY UP! )

I would say go for it, your door is not going to be open all the damn time regardless.

Too flashy for me but i'd like to see them for sure. I think I'd like them better if they were brushed.
