flat black berger on black car...?

Title sums it up, so anyone have any pics? I have a black SS and am always looking at new things for it, havent seen this though. Also, if anyone has pics of the carbon fiber berger panel on a black car that'd be cool too.

I think the Intimidaor SS had a flat black panel on it.

NOT ! ! ! ! ! While everyone is certainly entitled to his/her own opinion, I disagree with yours. I certainly think it looks just fine on my Onyx Black ZL1 Supercar ! ! !

02_Phase2_ZL1, then let me rephrase. That looks really good on your car. I guess it just depends on the end result.

The one I have seen in person here, looks bad.

Those panels look great on black cars! If my car wasn't so slow, I'd want one too. Now I'm wondering how the whole car would look with a satin/matte finish vs a glossy one. Hmm...

My friend has it, and it looks good. I'm trying to get him to get stainless inserts to finish the look

I would use flat black on any black colored car. It will stand out better. However, I like the high gloss Berger panel on any other colored car.

Hey NightWindDriftr...LandonZ is a satin finish..same thing I used on my panel (although my car isnt black) looks great..easier to wax....

If any cares heres a link to a kpewter car..

I think its pretty unique looking... the berger panel is definately growing on me. Any seen the carbon fiber panel on the car? I have a carbon fiber grill and im wondering about the berger panel to tie it in. Thanks for the responses and pics so far!

i personally dont like the carbon fiber, a bit ricey for my taste..BUt honestly guys I have had nothing but compliments on my panel..You can know, thats not really a good pic!! At night it looks awesome the flat paint and the chrome letters..

Ill never change it back to shiny again. TO anwser the Satin/flat question!! Its flat paint but I used a acrylic enamel flat black paint from advanced auto parts with 3 layers of red primer..(wetsanded)..
