Personally im not sure how good the Berger would look. But you can still tint your amber lights. I never liked the chrome lip, so i think it would look cleaner without that. i mean thats basically the only chrome you have. and maybe some strano springs... and personally i like the look os basic tips (not chrome)

I also dont think the berger panel would look real well with the back lights being tinted...Thats just me though, i know a lot have people have said to do it, and add orange inserts.

HID's are the next things to go on though, then a grille

I agree drew on the berger panel be to much black there only do one or the other. Id say the grille and tint your tunr signal lights too other then that maybe a cowl hood.

If you did a black berger with orange inserts, then you could spend a million bucks on the acorn tail lights, those would stick out. Don't see those everyday.

SS hood, SLP grill, Black center TT2s, NO BERGER.

I still dream of owning a 99 HOSS, M6, Hardtop, possibly with the White interior.

No SS hood.. Chrome wheels would really set it off. Berger if you like, I think it would look good. Also with hockey stripes. You cant get a better color for the car! It is beautiful. good luck.

damn dude i just sold a whole black interior!

I would do a Berger, keep the wheels you have or get some all black C6 Z06s like mine , TT2s are played out, Sunoco hood, no stripes, and thats about it. Do you have springs on it? Car looks damn good as is. Oh yea get a grill or fill in the holes from the stock juan.

btw got the cam in the car if you want to check it out. well you might have to wait, I only have one seat in there right now with no carpet or panels lol.

All good ideas. Do something different on the hood, skip the TT2's, and maybe add a stripe, but otherwise looks good to me

Sunoco hood with black stripes on sides of scoop

Chrome wheels. (Torque Thrusts would look great)

I really like the Hugger Orange color, but too much orange and black looks halloween-ish IMO.
