Default Berger panel AND black tail lights on white car?

i searched on this.

how does a gloss berger panel look with blacked out tail lights. i dont care if they are covers or nightshades, ill get the idea

Im putting on all black wheels as soon as i can afford tires, and going with a black grill, i think this would tie it all in nicely.

thanks bitches

In my opinion, it's far too much and just really messes up the look of the back of the Camaro. But then again, I also think that all black wheels are hideous.... so maybe what I say isn't worth anything to you. I think that you should either go with just the black tail panel or just the blackouts. Both just makes this huge oddly-shaped black cluster in the back.

true. i like the polished lip. . . on every color except white. yeah its hard to picture so thats why i want to see it

this is another members car. as soon as i saw it i knew i had to be a copy cat. so the wheels are in the garage waiting for tires

i think that looks pretty good, but there needs to be some white/chrome accents on the wheels to tie in the actual color.

chrome lip, chrome lug nuts, white brake calipers w/ black camaro letters.

some of those might be a little tacky but just givin you some ideas.

those arent bad, ill probably paint my calipers white, but i like broader tie ins, and my tint is realyl dark and the black b-pillar i think ties it in pretty well, also my billet grill is getting painted black, i just wanted something on the back.

That first pic looks killer. Never seen it before but i love it! It adds a more sinister look to the rear.

I say leave it white,

I think it looks allright on some cars but dont care for the berger mod on a white car. If you do it stick with the Semi gloss, the gloss finish looks like you replaced it and cant afford to get it painted...IMO.

wow....at first i used to think...who would ever put blackout tails on a white camaro.

but apparantly its somewhat popular.

If my opinion is worth anything...I'd say pick one or the other. I would never put either on my car. I'm more partial to the berger panel over the tail lights though, if I had to choose. At least then you can imitate a cop..and trick some "not so slick" civic drivers.

I'd say one or the other, in WV the cops would hasssle your *** about the tailights so if it was me I'd just do the berger panel.
