Got the front ones on and not the back.
Bought the car and it didn't have the back.

I think solaras are nice.

Why take off the back and leave the fronts?

I took back and front off, and I haven't looked back since. It's painful when you see all the dust, grime and ROCKS that get up under there to situate itself in between the stupid plastic and your precious car paint.

Edit: Just saw your CL's picture again. Doesn't look TOOO bad w/ the mudflaps. But I'll stick w/ what I said. Tear those bitches off.

Depends. I like the red and white ones. I didn't like the updated ones with the fancy ass amber and red mixed together to create a vomit-esque mosaic of tacky tail light. <--- if those are what you're referring to.

So you're gonna tear those bitches off right?

If you want to decorate them you can do what the truckers do and put 2 chrome plated girls sitting down back to back
