Actually it replaced the ZZPerformance sticker so I might have lost a few HP

It works much better with the blacked out chrome on the tail lights than if it was still chrome I think. When I was looking at that option on my car which is the same color even, I didn't like it on mine so much.

I like it! I've got that same logo on the front lip of my cup holders (so it's visible when opened up and hidden when closed) Will agree that the blacked-out chrome really does the trick towards tying that together. Of course. I also love that little added sporty red/chrome flare on the back  cool
