Fixed.

It doesn't look bad, but I would never do it to my car.

It wouldn't look good on my car. I have the LT. If I had an SS, I'd do it.

i tried finding the hard rubber garage door bottom seal for my friends car the other day and we could only find nail on rubber not nail on hard rubber. We went to two home depots and a lows. Where can we find this nail on HARD rubber instead of just nail on rubber.

I didn't even notice it was "hard" rubber. the stuff i used was like a foamy like rubber. Looks just like what he used. Came out fine. Can't say it looks as good on an LS as it does on an SS but still better than stock.

It's tastefully done, quite unlike the honda civic I saw once that had a body kit made from PAINTED TIN ROOF GUTTERS.

Ummm.....looks ok, but provides no benefit other then that. and I'm sure when you're driving you can see it folding at times. I've seen SCCA racers make them from those black strips that you would use in your garden/lawn to separate the soil from grass, anyone know what I mean? I just got a real CF one haha

Nope, it doesn't bend. Did it on my friends Mustang and it holds all the way to 145.
