I picked one up at a salvage yard really cheap. Then I rough sanded it and sprayed with FLAT black bumper paint which IMO looks better than gloss black and is the official Berger color anyway.

I always thought the Berger panel did not have the CAMARO lettering on the panel, or at least it was filled.

Semi-gloss/satin is much closer to the original gen 1 panels than flat black. To me, the flat black looks like it's in primer, and unfinished.
