Mine are not but I have a friend that has the saleen back end on a GT, with the Street scene Gen 2 nose and side skirts. The scoops, sideskirts, saleen wing, saleen bumper are all moulded in with no issues. The cervinis kit is far superior to the material and mold of the Gen 2 parts. He's also had the door handles shaved and a glass roof installed. Way over the top with body work but it's so much cleaner when done that way.

Now if any small thing happens, someone bumps the rear end, side skirt bottoms out, it's likely to show up in the moulded areas. tradeoff for the awesome look is big repair costs if something happens..

The car looks fine the way it is. It should be an expression of your tastes and not what others want you to have. Show us the real you, I'm sure it will look great.

I'd say no badges...Just my opinion, maybe get rid of the OEM tape stripes and paint them with a fade to the back...start with the color of your stripes faded back to the color of your car over the top and down the sides...that would look sweet...imo

I was also thinking of a Shelby Super Snake style stripe. Any idea?
