I'm trying to decide whether I should leave the front blackouts on or take them off. Police and inspection people are telling me there illegal.....DUH, I new that to begin with, but I finally got warned so I'm rethinking how my car should look. I really like how it looks without the blackouts, what do you think?

 

i really like your car with them

 

I say take 'em off and send me the black outs LoL j/k u should keep 'em on the look good

 

1 vote for without.

 

take the gts stickers on them off and then leave the covers on

 

without

 

You car looks badass either way.

So why not take one black out off, and leave the other on:lala:

Heh, no man, you got the whole black thing going, so leave them on.

But if the time comes, even if you NEED to take them off. Your ride is still sweet

 

Don't take this the wrong way....

If you has some really nice, new headlights there, i would leave them off, but if it's nothing special, then leave the blackouts on, gives it a cleaner look....

 

Normally I would say just leave em off, but there's something about your car that makes it look awesome with them on... and with your paint being screwed in that pocket, I say leave em on.

 

I say without. It's an awesome looking car, regardless.

 

with

 

Without.

IMO headlight covers look tacky

 

WITH!!!!!!!!

 

keep them

 

well I can vouche for the whole one headlight cover looking retarded thing because I did it for like a quarter mile after mine blew out at like 85 mph

 

i saw without, man this would have been a great thread for a poll

 

i say keep them on

 

I was thinking about getting some of those and was just wondering how you install them. Do they screw on or snap in?

 

The front uses clips that have double sided 3M tape, and the rears use some sort of velcrow. I say some sort because I had to take them off to get my inspection sticker, and both sides of the velcrow are hard, (not soft on one side, and hard on the other).

Thanks for all the comments about my car. It's always nice to know when work is appreciated. Another problem about those front blackouts is I can't see some roads at night. If there's no street lights, I can't see the the roads, even with my brights on;

 

i thought that seeing would be a problem. i was going to get them for my car but i cant see well at night as it is and i drive in the country alot with no street lights..lol i got headlights, brights, and some super white fog lights..i still have a hard time some times. but your car looks very good with them. also as someone said it'd look beter if u took the gts sticker off

 

how are they illegal , i can see at night but during the day they gotta be legal . u cant see the light of a trans am . Why r they illegal?

 

by law, it says that you have to be able to see the red reflectors from a certain distance away and you can't through the blackouts. I can't imagine anybody other than some kind of robocop caring, but in some places, this law is enforced.

 

not even close to a hard decision...
leave them off

 

just leave 'em off. it's safer, no risk of one flying off, no problems with cops, and IMO it looks better.

 

i say take 'em off

 

Off, I've never liked blackouts on any car.

 

Off

 

off

 

Well, after looking over my baby at certain angles, and parked in different places, I've decided that it looks better without the blackouts, but I'm going to need your help telling me how to fix this:

Thanks for your opinions

 

Sweet. I personally hate blackouts. I think your car looks MUCH better without them.

I vote to leave them off. But only because they fly off at higher speeds. I dont like the idea of things flying off my car while I drive around.

 

keep the hot chick in the sig... but yea.. good think you parted with the black outs... the grill looks good, and better then what i have on other cars. I think your gril looks better and it looks as if it fits better then fly's

 

I think the blackouts are badass. im getting front and back for my 91 maro. where did you get the grill from?

 

take em off

 

i second that....that always bothers me when i see the lil GTS on blackouts...it ruins the whole look all for advertising
