    I sit corrected. Seems pretty silly...

          While I don't mind slats, the mesh is much much better.

                  The black is so much more aggressive.

                    It is, but there's something about the originality of the body color variation.........OEM whoreness killing me softly



                    I even am considering slapping ambers back on

                          While it may have been OE I have never liked the body-colored mesh, certainly on lighter colors like Dakar or Alpine. It was clearly not a very popular thing as it was halted after the first year and I can't think of many cars that have ever had something like that. I prefer the contrast and feel the opening should have depth.



                          As for the ambers, some cars pull amber off in excellent fashion, but I think Dakar and clears work well together. Could go either way.
