Body color or black tail light panel?
 
Since painting the car DSG, Im thinking maybe the black tail light panel doesnt look as good as it did when the car was silver. Would it look better with it just painted body color? If I do keep it black, should I go gloss, semi or flat? If I keep it, it needs to be repainted cuz when the car got buffed, some of the rubbing compound got on it and will not come off.

i would almost give it a shot with gloss black that could really set if off and look good

i still think the flat black looks good it just doesnt stnad out as much

paarman97maro 10-13-2007 12:24 AM

Id say gloss black.

Another vote for gloss black. I think it would look really good.

Gloss black here also, I dont like the look of flat black panels they look unfinished imo.

FamousZ 10-13-2007 10:33 AM

semi-gloss

Semi Gloss fool!:wedgie:

It will look much better once we get everything done and have the nice stainless magnaflow tips on it.

Bingo we have a winner bob!

Everyone is saying gloss.. But on your color of car I think gloss would stand out TOO much and look dumb.. Semi-gloss with some chrome fill ins will look amazing!

paarman97maro 10-15-2007 11:20 AM

pics of said semi-gloss. I cant picture it in my head.

IMO it looks AMAZING.. And I have actually thought about doing mine in semi-glosss but then my tail lights would stand out since they are blacked out..

paarman97maro 10-15-2007 01:21 PM

hm yeah i actually do kinda like that. i change to semi gloss.
