I like it on ... what baffles do you have in your BSL's? How's the sound? I'm getting a set myself, trying to decide on the baffles. I love the rumble ...

Like ghostrider said, stock I think it looks good and adds to the nostalgic look...go with a billet or fat spoke wheel, take it off.

Lose it. QUESTION: Do you have to replace the spacers on that side?
