    Does any one have this trim on their Grabber. I'm interested in adding this to my car once its back from the body shop. I can't seem to locate any pics of the trim on cars with the flared qtr extensions and the trunk spoiler. I borrowed this pic from the gallery but its not a Grabber rear. I would like to see some pictures and also need to know how the three pieces are attached to the car. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks ... Bob

    Grabbers did not have the aluminum trim, instead they had a stripe near the edge of the spoiler and quarter extensions.

    Thanks for the reply but I wanted to know if I can add this trim to a Grabber rear. I like the look of the trim vs the tape stripes and I was wondering if anyone else has added this option to their car (Grabber).

    Sounds Great! Thanks. How about some info on how its mounted. I would imagine that the trunk piece mounts the same as the hood moulding but what about the qtr extension pieces? I would like to know how you mounted them and what was involved.
