Thanks again for everyone's compliments!

And I'm also open to any suggestions. I've got a few ideas for future mods so we'll see how things turn out.

I know I'm beating a dead horse on this, but I honestly don't see the appeal of these. IDK

Gotta see them in person to appreciate the change in look.

I don't 'get it' either, but imo if the person that owns the car likes them that's all that counts. I can understand them being on a pace car edition to help replicate the look though. I have to admit they do blend in nicely on Chainsaw's car. Let me know if they break up the wind stream enough to prevent dirt buildup on the rear bumper...maybe I'll buy some...

Yeah the main reason I got them is because I'm sort of a big NASCAR fan and since the Monte was heavily used in NASCAR I think they make it look that much better. And also because I don't have any kind of special edition I wanted to make it stand out more from Montes in my area. I haven't seen any around here that have them. My goal is to someday have a completely unique Monte that I can call my own.

And on the same plane I understand how other people don't get as excited about them. I guess it really does come down to personal preference.

There's a 40th Anniversary GP that I sometimes see around here with them, and let me tell you what... They look fantastic. I'm hoping someday I run into the owner and ask them if I can buy them for like $100. Hopefully they don't know how much they're really worth. That may sound kindof "douchey," but it's just a dream. Haha.

Again, roof rails look great!
