Notice I didn't add the leaping cat hood emblem. The car didn't come with one so I decided not to add it opting for originality.

I couldn't help but laugh at the "Big Black Bumpers" comment haha...Yes they DO come in handy, don't they? ;) Beautiful cat. I love them in Black. They're a pain to keep clean, but when they ARE clean, man they are something else.

Nice looking jag. I kept the hood ornament off of mine, but I do have it in case I decide to put it on. I've got a '94, the only thing that really makes me wish I had one from the 80's is the dual headlights...or maybe a '95 or newer would be better. Anyway, come by and check out mine sometime
