Default Anyone have a Polo Green Camaro with their Berger Panel painted?

I've tried searching and haven't come up with anything. I'm wanting to know what a Polo Green LT1 F-body would look like with the Berger Panel in flat or satin black, so I can decide if I want to do it or not. So, if you have a Polo Green Camaro and you've painted your Berger Panel, post up some pics so I could see it please.

Check my myspace and I'll stick it back up there...

Mine's Satin finished with a custom Z badge and I left the inside of the orange bowtie the color of the car, I think it looks awesome, I've yet to see another I like as good as mine..

I don't have myspace anymore, so I wouldn't be able to go into your photos anyways.

It's still not really Polo Green though. Yours is actually more of a lighter blue. The reason I want to see it on a Polo Green car is because I want to know what it'll look like on a darker colored car. And your car looks very nice btw and your Berger panel also looks very good with the badging. I vote some Cragars for it.

Yep, now I just have to find a killer deal on a painted or non-painted one. I think I may be able to get a painted one with chrome vinyl inserts for around $70 or $80 shipped. Would that be a good deal?

Yeah, even if I got an unpainted one, I'd end up painting it myself because taking things to a shop costs way too much damn money.

I took mine off the car and washed it with dish soap and an SOS pad, then wiped with with a microfiber towel with isopropyl alcohol and sprayed it. Cost $2.33 for the krylon...Rather cheap paint job. I think berger looks best on darker cars. Why not just paint the panel thats already on the car?

Well, I have one lined up to buy, once my tax return is deposited into my account. It's a semi-gloss black with 3 coats of clear coat and it's already got the brushed aluminum inserts. The guy said he could do $65 shipped. I think it should look pretty good. It looked pretty good on his car. I'll post up some pics after I get it and put it on the car.

Okay. I tried a little photo editing of my own using Paint. (I don't have photoshop). Here's a little before and after of the work. What do you guys think? My editing isn't the greatest, but I really like how it turned out and can't wait to get the berger panel now.

I'm doing it for sure on my BGM. Had to laugh at you paint, but you get the idea. I checked out how it would look on my car with Forza 2. Bought an SS on the game, painted it as close to BGM as I could and did the berger mod to get an idea and I really liked it. Have since found a car on the boards with it done, but was planning on doing it after messing around in Forza 2, lol.
