I think they look good. I used to have one back when my car was teal, but I haven't had time to make another lately. If you want, I can find a pic of it for you. smile.gif

I have a gutter guard grill, hey hey A GGG! Yea, it looks fine. I polished the black supports, polished all of the shiney metal tubes and stuff, and installed the grill. Very good looking.

there's my car a while back.
it's not on anymore, if i were you w/ a black car, i'd either leave it the color it comes,
or paint it a graphite type color. so that you can still see it, but it doesn't stand out,
but also so that it doesn't just blend in w/ the rest of the car...

I have a 94 and i have mine on the outside..I like it better that way..but it's a matter of taste i suppose..by the way it's not real bright aluminum so it dosen't really stand out a whole lot...Prolly why it looks ok on the outside..sorry don't have any pics..when addition is done on house then the digital cam gets unburied..

Depends on how much they sell it for. Take that, mius 1.00 for the grill, and that's about their profit.

I've seen it for $70 a sheet at a local import shop. I couldn't imagine spending that much money on a cheap piece of material stamped with the APC logo.

your car looked pretty good like that, why'd you paint it?

I'll admit the yellow is banging tho, really grabs your attention..

and how much your paint job cost?
