ORIGINAL: MELLOWYELLOW06

It looked great but it was a pain in the a$$ to maintain. You would get ugly dust bumps undreneath and it made it look ugly. It does stick great and look even better. I would suggest to get one and put it on. If you dont have the dust problems I encountered, then you're good. If it starts to annoy you, and you like the black out look, for +/- $100 you can get the back panel painted as I did. Here is the painted look. Its a little far but here it goes:
+1 to that

I have a magnetic panel from Stang Mods and will ship to anyone that wants it. You pay for shipping. PM if interested.

Been there, done that. The additional $ for the honeycomb panel (or similar) is well worth it IMHO.

I have had mine on now for about two weeks. I really like it. But....like everyone said it does collect dust. Since I cover my car every night (no garage) I always use a california duster...so it really is no big deal to me. Once I get some money to burn I plan on painting it.

I was going to get one, but I ended up buying a black GT. So there is no need for one!

I have a stick on one. They start to come loose if you drive in the rain a lot, and junk does get behind them. I am going to paint mine one day just to make it look even better, plus, someone keyed my car on the trunk so I had to put the panel on or get it repainted.
