Default Help me decide

*my computer corrected berger with burger. * Well I have been wanting to change the rear up a bit since i installed my CME and cant decide what to do. I ordered some stainless inserts from emblem pros and cant decide what to do. The link in my sig titled pics has more pictures of the car.

1. Leave the car how it is




2. Dont have any pics. But the choice is install the inserts.

3. do a satin burger with the inserts. (this is what im wanting to do)

I'm not a big fan of bergers on black cars either, but I must admit that the satin panel looks really freakin good. My vote is for the satin berger with the inserts, it looks too good to not do it!

nope, i just tied it up. i still feel that you should do the satin panel if thats what you want.

but, i personally like the stock panel better for black cars. Not to say the satin looks bad (it doesn't at all), but comparing the two, i like the all gloss black look better. So inserts only gets my vote

**Edit-- you gotta have a picture representing all of the options, not just two
