Black Berger Panel
I went with something different, just got my SS spoiler on and painted.
I will have the stinger shaped run ins on the hatch painted where it meets the spoiler along with the roof all black so it flows really well.
I love it!
and a non-edited one so you can see how it really looks, lol.

wow looks extremely sharp!! so im guessing u have to get it painted on? do u remove the berger panel or leave it on the car? also do they make a vinyl u can use instead?
Yeah its easy to remove, just 4 or 6 plastic wing nuts behind the carpeting.
I'm sure there is some vinyl you could wrap it in, but I would honestly just pick up a spare and paint that one and keep the original one as well, that way you can switch.
Junk yards will have the panel for like $25-$40...

^ What they said. Mine had 4 wingnuts for the tailights, 2 per side, and had 4 metal nuts holding the tailight panel on, two on the outside and 2, one on each side of the back hatch latch. I took mine off, wet sanded it a lil to scuff the paint so the new paint will stick, let it air dry real good, then painted mine flat black, sprayed a couple coats of flat on there, then followed it with some flat clear coat so it would help protect the flat a lil more than to not have the clear coat.

Nah man, its a small enough panel you can do it yourself, of course the paint shop will do MUCH better, but I think mine came out pretty damn good for rattlecan.
I just wetsanded mine as well, maybe started with like 600 then went to 1000 or so?
Mine is glossy now, I had satin at first but I think glossy is much nicer!
Originally I left my rear letters body colored by putting some plumber's putty in and painting over then removing it, since they're a bitch to tape off.
This time I just sprayed the whole thing and got some like $7 vinyl pieces I think...much easier!
