I'd say, yay

It looks OK. I used to have such strakes that were made by a guy who fabricated oil cooler screens which are still on my car and look good. The strakes however, being made of some sort of plastic, warped due to heat so I had to remove them.

These new ones are made of metal, so no such problem.

I'm thinking that it could be eventually better to have just one strake per side, in the middle. Those should be a bit thicker than these, along the line how an otherwise hideous-looking body kit had them. Will try to find a photo of that.

For now, here are two pics of the strakes I had (but since then were removed).

I've been waiting for these double strakes to be revived since March. Never liked the single strake look.
