I put the Black ones from GM on mine.I like it.

I originally wanted gill decals, then when I saw a few appearing on cars, I lost interest. Didn't like the electrical tape look. Then my wife found some in a lime green color (apparently, a Dodge color) from Big Worm Graphics. In the picture they looked interesting, but I told her I'd have to see them on the car to know if I liked them. She got a set and put them on. And the more I've seen of them, the more I like them! She even messed up on one and contacted Big Worm to see about ordering a single replacement. They sent her a full set, no charge!

I still don't like the big boxy black stripe ones, but these are a lot thinner, made to fit each individual gill with a little "hook" at each end, and the color is all at once subtle yet distinctive. I like and recommend them.

Not a fan of the thick gill stripes, but thin ones look sweet imo

dislike any colored gill stripes, black or fade only!!

2SSJIM · 08-15-2012, 02:17 AM

I like 'em ........

8AD•SS · 08-15-2012, 04:28 AM

I don't so much dislike them as I just wouldn't personally put them on my car. I am thinking about taking the car to the body shop and having ZR1 style vents put in.

Mike,

I'm not a fan of any decals on the car, I like the billet aluminum ones the best..

Happy_Dan · 08-15-2012, 06:36 AM

Depends on the car color. I plan on getting the faded ones for my IOM

Vader · 08-15-2012, 06:41 AM

I love mine. Enhanced the whole red and black look I got going.

Thorston1 · 08-15-2012, 08:20 AM

I love the "gills". They are being put on my Z as we speak. I have a white Z and black " gills" break up the white just enough to make the car appear meaner. Go for it!
