Opinions on the gills
I recently installed gill decals. Can I get your guys thoughts? With or without? I'm not entirely convinced they help. I'm leaning toward the clean look (no gills). The last four are photoshop'd to help compare.

I prefer the gradient gill decals to the solid black ones.

I'm leaving them off my SS. I believe most of the time "Less is more."

I think they look awesome, they actually make the non painted ground effects look better.

Leave them on, they look great. I have black ones on my BumbleBee and I think they really add to the look of the car.

Actually they are the gradient ones. Um.....I totally butchered the install though. You can see them below. I'm a little embarrassed to show them. I put them waaaaaaaay too far back into the gills. I was anxious to do them so I did them that night in the garage with crappy lighting rather than wait the next day. It also would have helped to look at a picture first to see the proper position. Anyway, that's why I'm asking. I don't know if it's worth reordering. By the way, the plan was to do the combo of two gills like so...

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/wiki.p...UTLINE+INSTALL (in case you didn't already see that) I've got the first set layin' on my dinning room table, waiting for the second set and gonna do a wet install. It is necessary to get the correct placement. And when placed correctly, they really do look good! I'll have photos when i get done. Edit: Awesome hood spears (best i've seen), rearviewmirrors, and rear spoiler!

Gills look good, just like in 69.
