I have issues with the impulse engines vents in STO. I'm not sure, but this video shows much more logical placement of them.
"Cryptic Studio’s Jack Emmert (2010): Microtransactions are the biggest bunch of nonsense. I like paying one fee and not worrying about it – like my cellphone. The world’s biggest MMO isn’t item based, even though the black market item GDP is bigger than Russia … microtransactions make me want to die.”
That is how my Steamrunner looks too.
I even tried the different hull variants, to no avail,
still looked like my ship absorbed all the light
that normally would have reflected off.
All other ships look fine, so it's not my settings
Guess I'll be running in stealth mode
for a while until they fix it.
Maybe I should temporarily rename
my ship to: USS Black Hole.

Hmm. I've been using the tier 1 version on my low-end alt (haven't opened up the t5), and it looks just fine using the Veteran material.
Note the darkness and all the detail missing in this screen. It's even hard to see the windows and outline of the ship in places, even though the ship right next to mine appears normally.

These screens were taken in the same spot and under the same lighting conditions and with the same game settings.
Both ships are wearing the default costumes
