Default Damaged side strake. What to do?

Someone door-dinged the center "gill" on my passenger side. Has anyone got a spare? Maybe replaced yours with a chrome version and got one laying around? Is it hard to remove and replace?

The chrome ones go over top of the factory ones.
You could look for a seller on ebay parting one and contact to see if they have the part you need.
Just be sure to get a dealer price first so you know if you are getting a good deal.
Then again you could put chrome ones over them.

I was actually wondering how the Crossfire looked without the strakes. Does anybody have pictures or can someone do a photoshop without them?

Here you go...

If you decide to remove the side strakes and go with the nude look, some body work and painting will be required.

Thanks Ben, I think I'll keep the side strakes.

I still wish they were functional. I'm really not into the fake stuff, but I really do like the look of them.
