I like them. As a lot of people stated, there is a good contrast with the IOM. You have the black theme going and it looks good.

I like the black gills with the black ground effects. As an earlier post stated. It really makes the IOM pop. Hope you got the IO leather interior, that would be sweet. Though I wouldn't put gill decals on my ABM. Doesn't look right in that color. IMO.

I like the gills...but I think they look off when the top of the gill doesn't follow the lines of the gill...they are cut wrong.

I see so many like this...they need to flow with the actual gill rather than a cookie cutter style gill.

IDK...that's me...I like them on there but they need to conform to the actual gill.

I'd keep them. You've got a great looking black on IOM theme going on, and it adds to it.

Ever thought of blacking out the tail panel?

JorgeSS · 12-30-2009, 12:42 AM

i like them, but like stated before get better cut ones.. and take your time, on the next one

When I have my hood spears painted on the car, I'm going to ask the guy if he can airbrush the fades on the gills. My car is CGM though, so it won't be as obvious as on the orange.

P.Ham I like the fades. Here is a thread where this is discussed:

Check out post #9 where a guy put on 2 decals (fades and black strip) to enhance the effect. That's the look I'm going for but I'll have mine painted.

I like the gradient ones as they go very well with the black trim on your car! Yes, just fix them

Ajax Inferno · 12-30-2009, 10:35 AM

I like them myself.. I'm not sure yet to go with the black decals or with the chrome inserts I've seen...

With fades! ...adds to the slight aggressive look.
