Default VDP stubby conversion kit

Hey guys just wondering if anyone installed the VDP end caps on their bumper chops. I think they look pretty good ,appear to match the bumper finish, not really a fan of the squared of end capss

These look great compared to the non-matching RC's.

i think both of them have a cheap unfinished look. that scares me too, since what you usually see in the catalog photos is a best case scenario type deal. kinda like how the burger never looks like it did on the menu when you finally have it in front of you. i like VDP's better than RC's, and it's a great option for those who want to have an easier option for making a stock stubby, but it's just not for me. to each his own tho

I too "pulled the trigger" on this. Currently backordered at Quadratec though.

Has anyone received their backorders yet? Would like to see some pix and get some opinions on the final result.

Cancelled mine the other day. Spent 8 bucks at Lowes and converted mine to a stubby.

I am not understanding why people would buy Caps when you have to cut the ends off of the bumper and esentially you will have caps in your hand.... I mean you just cut the excess off and put it back on

Hmmmm. I'd like to see that. Sounds like a good idea.
