Question Satin Black or Gloss Black?
alright so i'll be doing my berger panel, manta and stripe out the back and the question here is the following:

Should I do the berger, manta and stripe in gloss black to match the sail panel or just go sating black on it all and forget about matching with the roof?

Any input is greatly aprreciated

i think the glossy hatch stripe might look tacky with the satin Berger. It'll really look like you got rear ended and never bothered to repaint it.

(speaking of getting rear ended, how was your weekend??, lol)

trust me!! When my girl saw my Berger, she thought it looked like I got rear-ended and never bothered to fix that one piece....or that i took the panel from another car, got lazy and never finished painting it to match my car, lol.
