Gill blackouts / accents
Hi I've been wondering what you guys thought the best fake gills accents/blackouts out there were. Please include were we can find them and if you'd like a picture. I've seen pictures of some that fade to black and others that are just black. I love my car and for the most part have left it completely original but I keep seeing those indentations and think something is missing or does not look right.

I got the faded ones from autotrimdesign.com. I have received lots of compliments on them also.

Faded ones from 'BMC Extreme Customs' for $36.
They look pretty good... |

The best setup I've seen is to use these first http://www.autotrimdesign.net/detail...cal_Kit_1.html and then put these on top http://www.ridergraphix.com/2010_Cam...Blackout2.html But it's a little pricey to do them that way. I did just black vinyl and I'm perfectly happy with them. I got mine basically for free so it makes them even better.

Yup, got mine here as well. Bout $30 and they're subtle - not just a strip of black vinyl.. My photos don't do them justice as my car is CGM, I'll post photos when I get home.. Their website is not very user friendly either, the fades are buried under about six captions. |
