The price seems right but I'd really like to see a close up of that seam. I also wonder how easy it will be to install a piece this large. I'd be concerned with air bubbles. Of course, I'm sure a good installer could probably do a great job, eliminate all the bubbles and make the seam invisible but the question is, how do you find a good installer and how much will it cost to have someone do it?

It really isn't that hard to install. You just need to take your time and use as much water as you want. I took some pics of the seem today, but now I can't find my usb cable to plug into my computer. As soon as I find it I will post some pics.

bandit1, what decals did you purcahse? How about some pics?

RMG,
Here's a pic of your rear blackout on mine.Quite happy with it.
I'd be interested in the hood graphics also, but I want to see some photos before I'll commit to purchasing.
Sorry, wrong pic, I'll try again

Ok, well I still can't find my stupid usb cable for my camera, so I will go grab a memory card reader at the store on Monday. I should have some pics of the seam Monday evening.

Am working on the black spoiler.
Have gone with the Boss theme, so no Mach1 for me, thanks!

Well, I think that the steeda style should be pretty easy. I just need to take the pinstripes off and extend the front om my computer. It is just a matter of taking my current one off and putting the other on. Maybe you would like to be the first to install it and tell me how it is. We can work out a discount. Send me an email if you are interested.

Ok, here we go, the moment we have all been waiting for. After a few runs to the store and wrong cables, I am ready to post the pics of the center seem. As you can see, it is only noticable very close up. Most people don't even know it is 2 pieces.

The steeda style is just a solid stripe like the one pictured, but without the pinstripes and it goes all the way to the end of the hood. I can have the steeda style ready to go in a day. I just won't be able to install it and test it until at least Saturday. If someone would like to test it, let me know. I can get a discounted price for it. Of course if it doesn't work I will personally test it and send a correct fitting one or refund the money.
