don't hate or like them so kind of indifferent, when I had my 2010 silver 1LT I had ones that had a fade in them from dark to clear that from a distance looked like I had actual vents where the gills are, only up close could you tell that they were vinyl over lays. looked pretty sharp

I had some random woman commented that she likes my Camaro, but likes them better with the gills. (My Camaro is black)
