I hope your being sarcastic cause this is hella funny.

O.P. - As others have said YOUR car YOUR call. Make a choice and roll with it.

I wouldn't, there's a reason why they didn't put them on at the factory

Get springs, I need to install mine come to think of it.

why don't u do a quick p-chop to see if you'd like the look or not?

i agree, i have a blk 2GS and if anything i would go black chrome door handles and trunk bar, since I already have the black chrome anniversary grille. I just wonder if it would be too subtle a mod to justify it.
