    Black out the tail light surrounds if you black out the tail panel. Looks out of place otherwise IMO.

    I have powder coated my tail light bezels black. Since the picture I have also done my "fancy" gas cap the same :thumbs2:

    before and after.......might help you decide.

    There's a guy around here that had an awesome 72 Comet GT, Red with black interior. He repainted the car Yellow, and painted all the trim black, totally wrecked the car, it looks awful (and I've told him that, face to face) These cars are way too old to have all blacked out trim, the tail light bezels look good (black) on black cars, or cars with black tail light panels. May as well wear one of those NEON colored hats to match the NEON colored shorts like they use to wear, when all black trim was in :D

    I think it looks even better on Johns car because his bumpers are black also.

    I took the liberty of changing out your bezels for blacked out Grabber type. I also gave the aluminum behind the grille a light spray so it cant be seen from the front. Thats how I like it!
