My initial reaction is that it looks a bit tacky, but on a black car, I'm not so sure. Maybe it'd look ok.

It'd look good on the back, but I think adding one to the side of the car distrupts the design.

I'm planning on getting a CDC Ducktail Spoiler, and deleting the rear emblem. So it may work.

I totally agree w/ Dan. I bought one off ebay from Bruno aka: blacklightning and was totally impressed with the piece. The quality is first rate....I painted mine when it got here the same black as the car. I let the polished allen head bolts do the contrast....thats enough "shine" for my taste.....check out the pics of it finished here...notice the line in the reflection...thats actually a bend in the entire top part of the door and frame.....it follows the lines of the fender perfectly

Billet or chromed fuel doors look great on some cars (i.e Mazda RX-8), but it's just not Mustang to me.

Well I guess I am going to have to wait for a locking one to come out and send to you to paint for me.

That or I can drive down and pay you to do one.
