Default Berger Panel style options...

So my extra tail panel is at the body shop getting painted satin black. I'm not sure If I should do the Berger Panel plain with just stainless steel CAMARO inserts like BitViper's car, or put my GMMG badge; that I got with my GMMG exhaust, on the panel like Sean's car. I would not be doing the 335 hp badge like on Sean's car, though. I was also thinking about adding the bowtie and Z28 emblem to the lower right of the berger panel. I realize the Z28 is black and might be hard to see against the satin black. Should I add the bowtie and Z28 emblem?

Thanks for any input. I hope Sean and BitViper don't mind me posting pics of their awesome rides.

I'm actually planning on filling in the "camaro" text on mine when i get it redone. I think that looks the best. Of the two i like Bitvipers best. The other looks good but it's a little busy for me.

It does look VERY clean. So you are saying no bowtie or z28 badge?

Correct, mine and bitvipers are identical. No bowtie, no SS/Z28 emblems, no GMMG, nothing but the Camaro fill-ins. Thats the best look IMO.
