You should probably just get like 5 or 6...It'll look alot more agressive!! Then throw some of those buick vents you can get at autozone on there! It'll be hawt!!

I think it would only look good with a very aggressive kits such as the INGS, R magic, and Veilside.

Thread hasn't been visited in a while... but has anyone noticed why there are TWO strakes usually? Jefecito87, notice the two parallel "chrome"-looking posts that run through the headlights... and tail lights. I think the idea was to keep that trend going through the middle. Anybody? Thoughts?

i like my strakes a lot. I have two of course, haha. But yeah, i think they add a cool look to the car. I'm sure i'll get sick of them one day though. If you decide to do 3, post pics. I want to see that.
