I like them but just for the better mileage that comes with them. If I had the money I would buy them just for that reason alone. As far as looks I dont think its to bad specially on the panel, but if you like it keep them on or just put them on ever once and while.

I'd drop the rear as far as possible to make it look like an old time "tail-dragger" hotrod!

Personally, not for me......

From an aesthetic point of view..... they are too round up top, need to match the fender shape more. (too many shapes in a small area) It would also need to be dropped in the back with that "nose up" attitude the old lead sleds had to be effective from a hot rodder's point of view. (You do have fuzzy dice, right?)

One thing. You need to color match the paint on the skirts better. "Moon"

But this is code for "he's old". LOL J/K Sleeper!

But those skirts are definately different. I do agree... slam the rear end and you'd have it!
