Berger or not to Berger?

Well I was thinking about doing a berger panel on my white SS. I kinda have a black and white theme going with my tint, wheels, and grille. Is this a good idea? Also, what steps are needed if you plan to do it yourself? I have access to a paint shop so it isn't much of an issue. And should I do it gloss or matte? Pics if my car below if anyone wants to photoshop it for me

Here is a pic of my car to get the idea of the theme:

I agree completely.
and then, to just finish hooking it all together... it may just be me... but the centerpiece on your wheels, where all the v's hook together... flat black it too... sexy.
My photoshop computer = 1200 miles away from me. sry, can't photoshop it for ya.

If it's not a berger SS, I say not at all. It's like putting an SS on a Z28.

i think doing the area where in-between the tail lights would look better than the berger panel and different.
