Default Need quick opinions

I bought a camaro tail pannel from a salvaged camaro and I just gave it to the body shop to paint black. I told him to do it in gloss black (Exactly like like the berger but gloss). So I was thinkin it over and should I have it painted gloss black like I said or call him up and change it to the satin black color?

I'm working to make this a show car (but is also my daily car), so please tell me what you think will look best; my car is pewter. Also I'm gonna get chrome fill-ins for the tail-pannel.

I have seen the rear panle on a Camaro done in all three levels of sheen, they all look fantastic!

The Berger is flat black, have to worry about getting wax on it!

My Red SS is semi-gloss, looks good and is different to the Berger.

The high gloss will look fantastic, and look very finished, people have commented on the flat black as being unfinished looking.

I have SOOO many pictures that people have been askin to see of my car, and I have them on my digi cam (but my friend has my transfer cord and can't get them on the computer <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> ), another thing is everytime I'm at his house to get it I forget it! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

People have been askin for pix of: My pewter and black interior, tint, blue calpiers <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> , tail pannel, and the entire car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

I know for sure I'll have them up by next week ASAP because I wanna take pics of my first car show I'll be entered in. Not as big as the super chevy at 66 we have down here, but still pretty big.
