yes... well generally black, flat black, gloss black, semi gloss... etc... it is usually referred to as the "CETA" mod... it was done on the factory Collector Edition Trans Am's... they were all a yellow color with that portion painted black.

and it definitely looks good. I'd have it done if i had a trans am fo sho.
