Default How does this look?

http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com/items/1125.jpg
I was thinking of ordering a set of these for my car, I have a datona blue Z and was wondering what you guys think?
I have CF accents on the car (CF b pillar, CF emblems ect..) just wanted a second opinion (my GF says I have horrible taste )

Also, is it just me or is bulletproof's prices quite a bit higher than thier competitors?

I prefer to stay away from cheap plastic CF look-a-like parts that dont even have a pretend purpose.

well to tell you the truth, the exerted heat isnt that much to create a big affect to the car's rear bumper(plastic).

Sorry but you asked.

I could grab onto the exhaust tips after driving 50miles. they dont get very hot...

certainly not melting anything.

actually, the only area at risk(if you want to call it that...) is the inside of the bumper facing the muffler. which nissan has taken care of by covering it in aluminum tape.

its ok. Im a ricer at heart. you can tell by my over use of LEDs just on the outskirts of what Id call rice, and my nice loud exhaust.

think of the forum as a group therapy session for people like us.

Yes, but see- what would be considered "rice" on hondas is considered "tastefull" on our cars cuz...we said so

I dont think that it would look good. I think it would look kind of stupid.
