Default Ceta on black Firebird?

I have a black firebird that I just got. I bought a black trans am rear bumper for it because I like the look alot better, I have been thinking about doing the ceta mod but IDK what it looks like on a black car or if its even worth it.

Anyone have any pics?

thanks

Maybe a little darker then that would look pretty hot. Like a gunmetal.

Flat black looks great. Do a search for flat black CETA, I know there's a thread that I bookmarked (not on my computer).

Here is my car. I seen Tinkrd's car and loved the way it looked so I decided to do mine. The only thing I did different is I put a thin red pinstripe between the black and the silver. I was/am a big Dale Earnhardt sr. fan and always loved the black/silver/red look of his car so I figured it would be perfect for my car.
