I am really thinking about doing this.  I saw a before and after on an RS on another website and it looked good. 

Just wondering if anyone else has done this?

Its not bad looking. Just not for me. I like the chopped look. If you like it that way then go for it.

I think removing the tape makes the car look crisper, and cleaner, like can be seen in those teal pics that sonicmyk posted.  However, I also think it takes away from the 'sporty' look of the vehicle.
