i would like to see some as well. I just today, applied the Bondo Black Restore to a console from a 98 fbody, that was a lighter color than mine.. it turned out Very Good! looks just black now and matches my darker console now. But I would like to see options for the larger panels. and not a fan of gloss smooth panels

The duplicolor is an awesome product. I redid all of my gray panels to black. I use a scuff bad and then blow them clean before painting. Good coverage and pretty durable. Texture remains too so it looks factory. I even did my wiper cowl plastic with it.
