i'd leave it off man...looks good with the blackout panel and painted lower valence...just plug the holes with some 15 cent nylon plugs from any hardware store...also if you want another fun thing to do...with my GT i painted the side mirrors...i think it would look good on yours as well..it's as simple as popping the mirrors off...masking them..sanding them...spraying them...clearing them...then putting them back on...took me around an hour and $8 in paint/clear

yea i have thought about the mirrors, i have paint too.. but im not sure whether to mask it like a cobra or better yet how. i guess ill have to eye it. i think im gonna paint the spoiler silver, it wont bring attention like the black spoiler i think..

That thing actually looks awesome right now. I like the combination of new edge/S197 styling cues.

The only suggestion I would make is find a way to blend that trunk panel better. Get out the fiberglass or tigerhair and get rid of those nasty seams. Then that thing will be flawless.

yea i can try something like that in the future maybe. It would make it look clean from every angle i guess instead of just a 'camera' angle hahaha

Lookin a lot better Preston. But lose the black plastic **** around the windows. I never understood why people put those damn things on cars. Trucks, fine. Cars, no.

haha thanks. and the window visors?? yeah ive been contemplating taking them off but i like them from some angles and that makes it worth it i think.

window visors gone,add some black wheels and match the rear panel with fiberglass r something and ill be jealous.
to be honest i thought the s197 kit would have looked ok if it had stock s197 lights in it and somehow took the lights on the side of the grille out and smoothed it.
car looks amazing now though man. good job.

So my guess is the alternator ?? anyone have opinions? need help asap
