I did this a little bit ago but i figure i'll share, dont mind the mess in the car had to store the rims in there for the time being

Heres a pic with the tail panel off and ready to be sanded, the green tape was for the area that i wanted to keep blue

Back on the car after a few coats. dont mind what looks to be imperfections on the tail panel, it was the sun's reflection from the bumper and hatch.

I always like the look of camaro's this way. Not bad considering it was all done with dupli-color rattle can paint and primer.

Very nice job bro. what paint did you use as a final coal, or did you put a clear coat finish on it.

Your BLACKED OUT TAIL PANEL looks good, especially considering the materials you used. It complements the color of the car nicely.
