I say put a scoop on the rear quarter window, downgrade the wheels to
maybe 17s or 18s, paint it with some shiny paint, remove the 5.0 badge
and it's perfect.

The one part I like is recessed tail lamp panel. The rest does not look
good to me. And I thought that horrid practice of painting chrome
bumpers had finally gone away.

Good point about the bumpers! I missed that. As for the taillights,
it sounds like a version of that panel will be part of the 2013
model.
