berger panels?

My car is a 94z, black. I really like the berger panels but I've never seen a black on black berger panel so i dont know how it would look? Anyone have any input or pics?

Thanks

I think it would look like *** on a black car. The rest of the car would be nice and shiny, and then you'd get to the flat black panel. It'd look like you just replaced it and never finished painting it instead of a berger panel, IMO.

Agreed. What about doing a set of inserts to make the panel stand out?

There's a REAL Berger SS on ebay right now that is black with gold stripes. Do a search on ebay, I'm sure it'll pop up. It looks nice, especially with the gold stripes.

I went ahead and found the auction again. Here's some sample pics.




In my opinion, on a black Camaro that doesn't have the Berger logos and such, it has a VERY high possibility of looking completely trashy.

There's kind of a small growing trend in painting things white. Maybe you could try having a white rear panel, white wheels, and a white grill area. That could look really nice.

Or... you'll look like a cop, and the police will beat you for it O_O.

I think a different color berger panel wouldn't be that bad as long as it was a pretty dark color...nothing vibrant.
