Anyone out there that could photoshop a pic or two of a DSOM C6 with a black rear bumper? I know it sounds dumb, but I saw a Corvette model in the toy section the other day and it looked kind of cool. Wondering what it might actually look like on a real vette.

Thanks guys!

Awesome man, thanks! Didn't look as sexy as I thought. Although i think the model I saw only the back face black no the sides, but I bet it wouldn't really look all that different.

Thanks again

You should just paint the rear not the sides of the bumper and it would look better. Also need to tie it in with going black wheels and tint the windows. Not a C6 but you get the idea:

Ive never understood what the purpose of painting the back black is?

Is it for purely cosmetic reasons?

Is it to blend in at night?

Is it to trick people?


heeeeeeeeeelllllllpppppppppp

I've seen it done on the bumper of a Camaro and liked it (in flat black) but the part lines for the C6 don't work as well with this look. IMHO.

Actually that does look pretty nice. I have tint and plan on getting black and silver wheels so i think it could blend nicely. I'll have to keep checking for some picks or find that damn model of it I saw.
