I've seen it done and don't think it looks very good. Maybe a little too bold for my tastes. I do like the lower part of the rear fascia blacked out though. Here's a pic of my previous 01 Z06 painted that way.

I LOVE the look of just the lower facia painted. I have a black z and 15 minutes after a wash and wax........dust settles in the tailights.........i imagine you dont notice it that much with silver.........just my .02

Personally, I think just the bottom part would be much better. :yesnod: :thumbs:

I think a flat dull black like Organosol Black would look really cool.
