Regardless, if you just popped those on and off at "showtime" they'd be really neat. Atleast if you've done everything but your brakes this would be a nice little accent, other than actual going BBK.

yeah, i guess they don't look thaaaaaat bad, but i would be concerned with the safety issues here. Those things are bound to slip off.
