i think just the berger looks good, the tinted tails is too much IMO for your car.

I think the berger would look better if it were flat, semi-gloss, or satin black. I'm not a big fan of the gloss black. But, it still does look good.

I like the berger panel on there. I don't like the chrome letters. That looks cheap to me.

....same here. I don't care for a fad, or to fake anything. Plus IMHO a Berger mod looks like your car was wrecked and you found a flat black (gloss...whatever) panel at the junkyard.

Peace,
Craig.

I am a fan of the Berger mod, but on that color I say no. I think your car looks really nice the way it is. I think it only looks right on certain colors though.
