A lot of board members have them and if I ever decided to go with gfx I'd definitely get the WW. They're relatively easy to install from the looks of it...

The ww are pretty cool, there are also rksport, vizage, and xenon. I like the vizage look and not many people have that look. Installing is easy they come with double sided tape on them. You can either sand the the bottom of your car where the gfx go and let the tape stick to roughened surface or buy epoxy and glue those bastards up their so they never come loose. That 's what I did

Here are some slightly more unique ones that can be found in the U.S. if you're willing to look for 'em.

Epoxy the gfx, I promise it works and its like cement by how good the bond is. Epoxy is found at any auto store and just takes about 5 minutes of holding. I would keep the double sided tape on but you should epoxy some of the groundeffects and leave some with the tape alone. Because the tape holds well at first which will allow the epoxy to get a good hold. I can guarantee that if you just use the tape, it will eventually come loose. My gfx eventually all came loose and so I had to use epoxy, next time I am going to just epoxy at first.
