I like them. I most likely wouldn't have it though.

I really like that blue color, but the black looks better.

I would do the 2nd pic on my car. I don't like how the louvers on the 3rd pic look on the side pieces. The blue ones I thing are just awesome...

Another vote for hate - All these add-ons make the cars look like escapees from a Battlestar Gallactica episode. And they do nothing to enhance the car either from a looks perspective or a performance perspective.

Some curb feelers and a "step away from the car" alarm would go nicely.

I thought the blue one was a 3rd gen Camaro for a second. While they may do a lot to keep the interior temperature down, they do nothing for me. I'll leave them off of mine.

I thought they went out in about 1990. Hate is a strong word, but it fits.

Not my style either, but it's not offensive enough to earn a hate button. I've seen worse.

I'm in the "like" category. I have the capacity to appreciate many versions/manifestations of the corvette line.

These cars (and louvers?) are an individual artistic statement...possibly an effective function of sun/heat control as well. I'm more in the category of wondering how/why these types of threads get started.

Are you THAT bored?

Throw in a Members Only jacket while you're at it.
