Default RE: Blackout panels.

I have the magnetic one... dont buy it!! unless you just want the look.... its alright to use just to keep the look.. but upclose its not so nice... there will be bumps under the magnet.. and you should take it off EVERY time it rains.. once water gets under the magnet, it begins to rust... thus sticking to your paint.. there was an really early thread about some guy taking off his magnetic blackout panel.. and it sticking completely to his car.. he had to break it off into little pieces and evenually he had to get it painted.. he painted it black, once and forall.. so he would never have to go thru that again.. but heres a pic of it on my car.. its pretty cool... $38 shipped to Hawaii... so it wasnt too much... plus i already know about magnets and cars... my dad had a police cruiser with magnetic side markers displaying Police.. and that thing didnt go so well after it had been on for 1 year.. rain and all.. LOL.. kepperz good luck on finding the right blackout panel that suits your look and wallet...
