awesome think - scared to ask what the airblade carbon fiber parts cost...

And anyone know how to install these? Can the airblades just be pulled off without bumper removal?

The problem is that where some of these black are located is also an area that will take some abuse from small stones ect- especially the side skirts. I prefer to have them covered in black plastic so they can endure the nicks better.

Normally I would agree but for some reason these cars can pull off some aftermarket (decals, carbon bits, wheels).
