Is RS pakage worth extra cost on a 2ss?

I am going to order a CGM 2ss but not sure if RS pkg is worth it? I would like to see picture of cgm without rs to see if ditch moulding stick out like a sorry thumb.

AGREED!!!...love the RS package...very satisfied with it...

The Halos look "BAD A**", and give the car a mean, sinister look, like it's saying "Don't mess with me, Mustang"..."Eat my dust"...LOL....

I love the Halo's as well as the HID headlights for night driving. They light up the night!

here you go there are picks of one without RS package at the bottom, not the best pics but ditch roof doesn't appear very visible

Personally i think the RS package is amazing but if your gonna be in a lot of snow (as i see you live in Canada) you might consider buying another set of tires unless you have an alternative vehicle

I'd go with it just for the HID's alone. Help you see! I' have them on my current car and can't stand to drive my other car at night because it doesnt have em

It's all 'looks' so I don't see how anyone can decide this but you...

The HIDs make visibility at night amazing though. That's perhaps the one "functional" change. In that regard I would say definitely worth it.

I got a CGM 2SS NO RS, wanted lights that looked not so Euro. But to each his own.

Here is my journal of a quick video of my car doing some runs in AZ. You can see that the roof ditch molding is hardly noticeable.

THATS WHAT THAT "THUNK" IS?! Man, I was wondering what that was. MY STS had HIDs, but it was a dual stacked headlight. Youre a man of wisdom.
