To each their own. I don't think it's feminine or yuppie-like in any way. It lets you know it's an RS model, which always included aluminum accents (wing mirrors, grille slats). They just took it to another level. Low set aluminum accents are going to become the new trend, just as oversized black graphics (giant faux diffusers, fake massive brake ducts and grilles) have been dying down somewhat. Mercedes has adopted this with their new models, Audi is doing it with their new RS models, Land Rover is doing it with its new Evoque, and Porsche is starting to do it with their high-end Panamera and Cayenne models.
