Hey, that looks AWESOME got any more? How well did they match you paint color? Also, how many NAILS did they use for the installation? LOL

I was going to go take some pics this morning, but I got paged late last night on something for work and had to run to Murfreesboro. Everywhere I went yesterday afternoon to take pictures was crowded, so I just took a handful in the parking lot at work

BTW, here is another thread with my initial shots right after it got installed.

Oh, and it is nail free . It is held on by that real strong double sided tape. No holes in the body required.

EDIT: It matches pretty well. I even had them spray my gas door, too, to try to help that. It couldn't have gotten any worse than it was stock. If anything, both parts may be slightly darker than the rest of the paint, but you can't tell it on the spoiler due to the angles, and the gas cap cover is actually better darker. It blends better on the angle that way. Before, it was lighter than the quarter panel paint and it looked worse.

Here is another one:

I just notice even on the high res version of my headlight shot, I can't see the clear film at all. I guess it is the light angle.

Your shot looks good, too. I guess it is all the silver reflection in contrast on the light housing that makes that shot look cool on these cars.

Hmm, now you've got me thinking I need a new avatar. My old 2nd Ave shot I'm currently using is now dated since it is pre-spoiler

Actually I didn't not yet anyway. I was just the angle and the way the sun was reflecting off the car. I hear there are a couple people that do remove the amber for about $150 - I believe they bake the housing to open the lamp - remove the reflector and bake it again....... Hope that helped at least a little
