Ok, just got these photos from the body shop that is installing it for me. I'm only having them install it because they already had the Z and have been getting it ready for Z Nationals. It looks quite easy to install. Take the rear license plate off, clean the area up, position the cover where you want it, and there is a strip of double-sided tape on the longest (bottom section) but the majority of this will be supported once you put the license plate back on. I'll have better pics and more info soon.

Again, please remember, these were just taken at the body shop only a few minutes ago and the cover is only sitting there for positioning. I pick up my Z tomorrow so better pics are coming, I promise.

Dammit, I know it's a forum vendor that is making this... but I gotta say it looks horrendous. I'm just not feeling it at all.

Hmmm... I kind of agree with flashburn. It just doesn't work IMO.

It might look better on a darker colored car. Maybe on PG or the 40th grey. I think maybe the combination of a darker color car + blacking out the diffuser might work. I think on 2theextreme's car it looks as good as it can, since he does have a darker spoiler and diffuser. It would look worse without those being done.

edit: It might also work on a PW car that already has the whole white/carbon theme going on.

Yeah, I must agree with you on that one. I have the EVO-R diffuser and a CF OEM spoiler and those do help, that's for sure.
