Exterior appearance finally done, pics....
I got some of that VHT nightshade to spray the rear side markers, works AWESOME!!! And I got a new all black bowtie made by DragonZ28 on here and got some quick pics for you, parden the dirty car, I LOVE how things turned out!!!! I'm still up in the air to paint the 3rd LED brake light, that's like my one bright light for people to see when I stop, so I don't know. Let me know what you think, I will try to get some professional pics taken sometime soon...

Can I get a close-up of your side markers? Just to see how they turned out?
Car looks good. The brake light would look good in black I think. Not a fan of black tail lights though.

Thanks guys, here's a little more close up pics of the side markers, not that great but ok, and they shine through FINE in the dark with lights on.
As for the SLP decal, I make them.
And I will have to really think about that 3rd brake light....

Thanks! Yeah SLP may not be much for parts/service, but they did bring back the SS and did an awesome job at it, so I give them credit for that. I have talked with Dave Hamburger on a few occasions, and he is a pretty cool dude.

Berger panel would be too much black, plus everyone does that. Try to make your third brake light orange so it hides within the spoiler, do not make it black, again I think that would be too much black, especially with the black-outs. Sorry if this was too much of an opinion. SLP rocks !

Thanks guys! No Berger panel for me, I don't like them that much. Another guy in my local club suggested I get some clear mixed with Hugger Orange and spray the 3rd brake like so it matches the spoiler yet still shows light like the black out does. I will try that and see what it does.
Thanks again!!!
Thanks again!!!

looks sweet man, did you sand or not??
i didn't like the black berger panel idea for the longest time, but now as soon as i shade the tails, it's next, with chrom or polished inserts. my Z is silver, and im going with the silver on black theme

If you decide on the panel...it needs to be glossy black, just like the rest of your car...no flat black bs. That just looks like someone threw it on there and hasn't painted it yet after it was rear-ended...it just isn't very classy.

Car looks great Scott! If you go the clearcoat route, make sure you prep and prime that plastic right, otherwise the clear will peel off and look like crap. Then again... that'd bring total closure to your name "Orange Peel"...
