Default Whats a Berger panel?

I thought it was one with NO Camaro lettering and black.
Or is it just a black one.

I know it's a black rear panel but I thought a Berger panel had no lettering at all.

Berger panel is just when it's painted black.

I believe on all the Berger Camaro's the tail panel was painted bumper black with it has the Camaro indent in the panel but no stainless inlays. There were some special Berger emblems put on the panel with the usual SS and bowtie emblems that GM had on them. Some of the other cars built by GMMG had the Stainless Inlays for the panel and were all painted the same way/color. I may be wrong but I believe this was how they were. Berger no inlays, all others by GMMG had inlays for the Camaro. People on here do them as well and call them Berger panels but they are sometimes painted other shades of black like gloss, flat, etc.

Isn't the sail panel the one right behind the driver's and passenger's windows?
