Bergering a Black Car??? I love the look of the Berger Panel on all the cars Ive seen. And I know its alot of work. But it is worth it to do it on a black car, like a flat black or something?

I think it really hurts a black car, looks more like an unpainted repaired part then a "mod"
My friend has a green tail panel on his black z28, it works.. I can't explain it *its the dark green*

I'd have to agree, a berger on a black car stands out quite a bit if you do it in a different color and looks unfinished if done in flat black. Of course, if you're thinking of a certain color other than black it would be cool to see a photoshop to get an idea.

Yeah thats kinda what I was thinking. It does look a it unfinished. I wouldnt wanna do any other color than black though personally. I remember there being something about a carbon fiber berger. That could look kinda cool

There is a rattle can paint by krylon that called H2O or something like that. If you get it in the satan and not the flat black it looks awsome! i have done this mod to my car 3 times because everything else would fade, but this krylon H2O did not! Its a simple mod that doesnt take much time. I personally think the satan would look awsome on a black car. I will see if i can find a picture of mine painted satan.

i don't think i'd do it on black. if you decide to though, make sure you go with some type of inserts for the camaro letters and slap the emblems back on... it would look horrible without those touches but the one posted up there with the stainless inserts and stuff doesn't look too bad.

The black cars already look mean as hell bone stock, especially the SS.

Ive been torn over this for a while. It doesnt look right painted but... I was wondering about carbon fiber. I have a carbon fiber grill and was thinking it might look cool to have the berger panel match. We'll see, i hope josh @ chrome & performance makes it and comes out woth some pics
