That way you get better fit and finish and the cost is really just about the same. $110 or so and about 15 mins to install. Here's mine:


Looks like the vote is 2 to 1 in favor. In politics that's considered a landslide victory.

I only like it on white. I have black, and i think it clashes too much w/ darker colors. Its like, "HELLLLLLLOOO!!!!!!"

I say go for it man! I never seen one on a car that I did not like, accents the rear of the GS perfectly in my opinion.

For those who have the chrome trunk bar installed, in a nutshell describe the install and rate the difficulty if any.
