Looks good dude. I had thought about it for my car, but I didn't think the color diff from black to NBM would be that striking.

I like it. In fact I like it so much that I might do it to my car ... but no one would ever notice because it is black already .

I think it's a great look, same with the Berger panel on Camaros. Nice job man!

Same problem, on black it looks orange now that the car has been polished up. Can't do the black on black but a gunmetal gray would look sharp on the TA.

Looks good!

On my Formula, I had some custom decals made for the filler panel. I had a silver bird made and "Formula" letters made to replace the stock "firebird"

The bumper looks good. I thought about doing something similar on my corvette, but it would be a little trickier cause the line there is a lot more subtle than on the T/As.
