Someone here put them on the side molding between the front wheel well and the door. I thought that looked pretty good.

I put it in between the wheel well and the door. I like it. It gives it a fast look to it. All the sports cars have it there like the M3, etc....

Ah, the classic chrome gas cap...makes me wonder, has anyone ever chromed the whole car? I would love to see that...of course the person who does that porbably has a chrome 'grille' and I'm not talking about his car either.

I can't even believed you looked into the the windshield washer lights. HAHA!!! Your to funny. My opinion don't start adding sh*t to the outside of your car. Everyone will see it and make fun of you. If you do anything do it to the inside.
