Default Again. black Berger panel on NBM?

Check the sig for pics of my bucket. I have black painted 30th stripes and was thinking of a black panel. I would think it would flow well with my stripes. What do ya'll think. I was thinking of going gloss instead of flat black so that it won't clash with my stripes and black top. I recently did my calipers silver with black brackets if that gives you a better picture. Hmm

Thats a big 10-4 on the black panel, it'll match your stipes and the whole NBM/Black color scheme you got going. Dont think I would do gloss though, satin might look a lil better.

Still debating. Someone here has a gloss panel with the stainless inserts up for sale and wondering how it would look.

Match the panel to your stripes (gloss or flat, whatever the stripes are), and call it a day. Would look awesome.

I had Tim paint the ZL1 stripes on my orange SS in gloss black. It looks kick *** with the gloss black rear panel. Pics coming soon, just lowered the car tonight.
