id consider getting one of these if the price is reasonable.

they do list a gm 7.5 10bolt as available, but no prices.

the only thing i dont see is a drainhole/fillhole on most of them.......guess you could email and ask how that works.

I dunno, looks cool I guess..... A little too tacky for my personal taste.

A rear end girdle is just a little too much money to spend on something for my car that doesn't help performance and can only be seen if someone looks under my car.

Whatever floats ur boat I guess.

read on some forum the clear ones will be $ 169.00-$189.00 retail, so figure you can get one cheaper than that...........so looks like pretty close to the price of our standard upgraded cover most people buy which is like $130-150

If Hondas came with solid rear ends like ours, we would have these covers a long time ago. I'll get the clear one, put a strobe light inside my differential housing and add florescent dye to my diff fluid

Yea a nice blacklight in the housing with the fluorescent dye should really spice things up...
