I am thinking of adding the CDC tail panel to our GT. Should I or not and if yes should I get the GT emblem?? I am looking for a way to get rid of the fake gas cap without going to the body shop for filling.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

personally, I think since your car's already black, there's no need for the panel...plus it won't "pop" because there will be no contrast with the rest of the car.

Here's the panel on my Tungsten GT:

I think the car woudl look better as it is now, especially with the tinted tail lights. The CDC panel looks kinda "flat" compared to the shien the rest of your car has.

Also, is the tail light tint legal or not? I really like it.

I have a black car, and I would say no. It looks cleaner without it, and no contrast like the others have said.

I have the plastic covers that you can take on and off and I've had them on forever. They're really not legal but no one has said anything or have I been pulled over with them on.

They aren't legal but haven't had a problem yet. I had them on 93 Z28 for the 10 years I had it with no problems.

I am looking for a way to get rid of the bid azz fake gas cap without a visit to a body chop for filling. That is why I was looking at the CDC.

Thanks everyone. Keep em coming

I like the panel for the texture if it was painted to match the car in glossy black.
