Default Homemade Berger Panel pics

I used a LT1 tail panel. Wet sanded it, then added primer and duplicolor semi gloss auto paint. Not a bad mod for under $20. The tail panel was free!

Looks pretty good. I like it. Even though I'd like it more if your sail pannel were black as well.

What sail panel? All I see is that funky 'muffler' sittin under your car.

It looks good! 20 bucks sure makes a difference.

The part that goes across the car before the hatch/ after T-Tops. Not sure what the correct term for it is.

Looks nice! I think with black stripes and red letters in the panel you will have some nice contrast.

The tail panel is easy to remove. Just pull back the carpet in the hatch udo the headlights and the 4 bolts that hold the pnel on. Takes about 5 minutes if that. My buddy done his in gloss black and it came out good.

The rest of the pics of my car are in another thread. I just posted the rear ones on this one
