IMHO, I think Roush made the rear worse.

In pics I didn't like it but it's grown on me.

How could it not grow on you? The 2010 Roush is the only one so far that I like now that I've photoshop up some mod's for the rear its really growing on me

Cutterwolf inspired me. I wanted to see what his solution would look like on one that wasn't black.

It's too bad we all want to fix something that we all seem to agree was a big design fumble.

1,000,000 times better just painting anything that is textured and not body color
