69' tail section color?
O.k., I am trying to go for yet another differrent look. I filled where the rear quarters met the tail peice on the car and now I have no place to break the black. I want to black out the tail section of the car (only to the bumper) but am a little worried where to break the body color and the black. attached is where my painter suggested and he and his employees seemed to like it. if it is hard to see it is at the edge of the rear quarter. I like it, but am a little worried that it just won't look right. the body color is a custom mixed dark graphite with white pearl and fine aluminum flake. What do you all think. body color or black it out????

I like the breakline moved in a bit on the sides where the factory line would be so you see a 3/4" line of body color to match the trunk edge that will show and be body color. A tape line there would be no problem.
I like the idea of semi gloss black back there on your color.
04-23-2005 #4Actually, the rear black is going to be a high gloss and the front grill will match. when they did it originally, wasn't the rear color a semi gloss? I don't want it to look original at all. Have you seen what it will look like with just a tape line there. I am kind of wondering about that? I don't want it to look unfinished?
