Default Berger Panel

Well I finally did my berger panel and I am happy that I did. I pulled it off wednesday night and my dad took it to work where one of the painters painted it in the paint booth. I used the stainless inserts and man it looksawesome! I just have to figure out what I am going to do about the rear Z28 emblem. I want it to be seen and if it is just black it is not too noticable. What should I do about the emblem. I will get pics up later!

Looks good as commented above!
However, I would have painted it flat black.

Your car looks great, keep up the great work~!

It would look good but I am not really into the older style Z28 emblems.

Thanks for the compliments and I am wanting to do the black manta stripe on my hood since it is the SS hood but I am afraid it will be too much black

Looks great that way. No need to clutter up the rear w/ emblems and such.

i say go to ebay and buy a set of stanless emblems from muffinbuster(very good quality and they look badass). Put them all around because it will look funny if yu only have one chrome and the rest black. Here's a link
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-02...92364823QQrdZ1

he also makes zo6 style z28 badges but he doesnt have any up right now.

I am kinda partial to my ground effects. I personally like them even though others don't. I do really like the stainless Z28 emblems from muffinbuster on ebay. I really like the 5.7 LS1 touch

I'd keep the emblems off personally. But if you want to keep your emblems, get stainless.
