Default New Tail Panel

Just got done filling/painting my tail panel. finally got it on the car and i love the way it looks, it turned out exactly how i imagined it would. its a '69 Z28 emblem that btw, was a bitch to fit onto that panel.

i know not everyone likes black tail panels, and i didnt want to just spray mine and be done with it. so tell me what you think, i promise i can take it, i wont cry.

Looks awsome! I painted mine also, but used glossy black to match the hood scoop.

thats weird! i just finished painting my tail panel the other day as well. I really like the way it looks. Im just waiting on my stainless inserts and it'll be complete. Yours looks great with the retro badge! maybe i'll post another thread when mine is finished just for the hell of it.

'smokin is correct. its the SLP exhaust, came optional on '96 and '97 SS cars i think? mine of course is neither a 96, 97, nor SS but the exhaust sounds awesome. cant wait to get the cam done and hear it.

thanks to all!

Looks great. I was planning on doing that to the orange car to get rid of the CAMARO on the back. What did you use to fill the letters?
