loose the stripes, keep the black trim. The GT500 has the black rockers so it can't be all that bad can it? I put a GT500 rear bumper on mine and the black trim flows nice right into the rear bumper and looks sick!

You could take off the black stripe on the side. It took me about an hour with a hairdryer and my fingernail.

You should see about 40 hp increase if it is done right. Dont do the stripes if it does not make your car go faster don't put it on.
