Default finally put the berger panel on!!!

ok well i picked up a matte black panel acouple months ago but didn't put it on till tonight . . . had nothing better to do and even though i'm still waitin for my SS emblems, they should be here next week sometime and i'm debating putting the red bowtie next to it like how it is stock. anyway the install only took about 8 minutes or so and it was really easy. here's before and after pics









now all i need to do is order the uretheyne letters in red from RKSPORT and it'll be done

stainless for sure...and ditch the SLP emblem...a red and black SS emblem might look tight as well..not sure would have to see it.

I like it much better, like others said, go stainless and I would go stainless on the SS emblems too! Or go stainless BUT get some matching red vinyl and trim it carefully around the stainless "ss" so that you have the nice shiny polish look with a red trim! just my .02

Oh and ditch the hp rating. 320 is really not much anymore by today's standard.

i don't like the stainless letter for my car, i have much more black and red theme . . . thats why i picked the the SLP emblem, HP rating and getting the Red Uretheyne lettering. i have more than 320 now so i'm just decieving people now and if i go stainless "SS" than i have to either take off the side SS emblems or replace them with stainless and i'd rather use that money for something better, like lap dances but thank you guys for your input!! i'll post pics up of when i get the SS emblems on and the Red lettering

i decided on it all after i saw a 99 Hugger Orange SS that was on chevytrader, it had the smae black stripes and a berger panel on the back with orange lettering instead of the silver. i gotta say the thing had me hooked on what i wanted to do with my car, only took a matter of time. i love it!
