I'm actually interested in some pics of this too. I thought about doing mine (NBM) but I'd have to see it first. And a buddy of mine wants to put them on his Pewter SS. So whose got pics?

You should do it. I really like my whistlers, they look good on just about all colors to me.

This mod only looks decent on very dark colored cars, IMO. Since your car is black, it would look alright.

I think it looks silly on light colored cars though.

Yes, yes yes..do it! no more questions!

Haha, it is all personal preference...I've seen red on a red car and white on a white car...do whatever color you think is best...

gloss, flat, or satin...gunmetal or blue or pink.

Just go paint!
