Default Rear Bumper Paint

Hey guys saw a thread on here a while ago started by the maniac about a possible slight mod by painting in the grooves next to the reverse lights, his idea was to extend the silver and I was very surprised so many people were against the idea I thought would look great so went ahead and did my version would love to hear what you guys think of the finished product!

I personally like the bright white reverse lights have superbright leds in them too on my car not a big fan of just tinting tail lights and stuff and really like how the black adds a nice offset

I like what ya did for the lights, I'd love to see them lit up. The black between the lenses looks good, DEFINENTLY differant. Never see it done that way, most do it the other way, by smoking or tinting the lens (that's what I did, but my Monte SS is black, so not much of a choice there...lol...
Also, love the "Pride" in driving it back home.. I'll bet your real proud, nice car..I'd be proud as well.., as for the licence plate, Looks like a camera on the licence plate to me.. My Back up Camera is going in the key hole where the lock set is. I'm gonna remove it from the new trunk ( I don't have a key hole in my trunk now, but bought a new trunk because of the Xenon Spoiler I bought) and it has a lock set in it, hate the lock set, so I bought a rear view camera, and putting it there...

Good lookin car.. Mjc,..
