Holding off on the Skirts and Splitter for the time being.

I've been considering the "eyebrows" for my CG as well. From what I see, I really like the look. How well does the color match the CG paint? Are they applied with an adhesive? Forsee any problems with removal?
Thanks.

They are just peel and place. If you don't like them, they peel right off.
They are just part of the Car now. They look like they belong IMHO.

For the $35 I paid to get them, not an expensive option. If you don't like them on your car, just consider it money spent on a nice meal.

This thread has just solidified my decision to get cyber grey (or a close/cheaper color) for my C3! Beautiful cars everyone!

I had them use the same on the sting rays, I posted pics above yours...will do the lettering when they do the matte clear coat on the whole care. Its still down at hennessey in texas for another week. I havent even driven the car yet, I unwrapped it at the dealer then it was loaded and shipped to hennessey...killing me lol.

Does anyone have a picture of a Cyber Gray with a Carbon Flash Hood Stinger Stripe? I'm curious how well it shows up. If it has Carbon Flash-painted rear spoiler and outside mirrors even better!

Thanks,
David
