I think we'll love ya for doing it. You might win a Custom award at the
shows next year (yeah, right)!
I think you should top the fins off with a spoiler. You know, like 2 feet
above the rear deck lid. And stick a third brake light on it. That'll keep
you busy!
Rather than tack weld them at the ledge, I think you should remove the
chrome strip and attach the fins on the seam there. Just in case you come
to your senses, uh, change your mind later on!
