Looks sinister. Did you go over it with clear coat after using the nightshade? Also, post up some pics of the front and side too if you can.

Looks great! Most of the time I hate that look, but yours looks amazing to me. Can you take some shots of the other parts you did too? How many coats did you do?

Taillight center section, SLP emblem, & the WS6 emblem stick out like a sore thumb now tho, ...
At least go to a clean center & lose the SLP emblem.
Somtimes, cleaner is better.

thanks for the compliments. i justt did 2 coats and no clear. The car is filthy right now so i will have to wait to post up some more pictures. i have been thinking about going with flat black for the bird and trans am and i wonder what the nightshade would do to the slp emblem if i sprayed a coat on it and maybe the ws6 badge too???

Duplicolor makes a kit to do this. It's called shadow chrome or something it's like 20 bucks at meijers and walmart.

dude! I love the center bird and "trans am". Did Emblempros do those? I'm sick of my faded filler panel, Let me know where you got them from.
