Totally ruins the lines of the car. Ditto on painted reflectors. If you don't want the reflector, then the pre-98 trunk is the way to go. Just my opinion of course. If you like it, that's what counts!

Yeah, sorry I appreciate the consideration, but it doesn't jive with the "flow" of the car.

I find when I have an idea like that, I don't react impulsively, but think about it for a good month or two before going ahead with it. And most times if I don't...I regret the decision later on!

P.S. Black out the B-pillar and sail panel. Don't just paint it Silver "because you can". Consider the flow/shape of the form in terms of the daylight opening (windows). I go to school studying Industrial design...just sharing some knowledge.

IMO I think its nice cuz its different with the rear taillights.

I dont like the corner silver so much but I do like the center reflector.

Howd you do it?

I beg to differ on unpainted looking like an Oldsmobile. My parents had a 4 door Cutlass Supreme. It had a stock body-color panel between the tails that looked like a painted panel. Yuck! (ebay example, NOT my parents' old car!)



Blacked out B-pillars rule on tinted Silver Frosts!

You "beg to differ," then essentially agreed with his statement??

I actually like the painted reflector and tails. I agree with Scotster regarding the
sail panels (though I have no clue what "daylight opening" means).

Reread. Slowly and out loud if it helps you. He said unpainted looked like an Oldsmobile. I beg to differ. Painted looks like an Oldsmobile, as shown in the picture.
