What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

[turbohead2332]

I've seen pics of camaros on here on which the spot above the bumper, but below the hatch is black. Is this intentional? What's the deal with that? And what is this whistler mod? I've searched, but can't find a description.

berger panel, yes it's intentional.

whistler mod is where you paint certain parts of the insides of 98+ headlights on camaros.

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

scene: yeah like that. I've seen them in flat black as well. I like it. I think I might do that.
And thanks for the description of the whistler mod. :D
What is involved in painting the berger panel? How does that work?

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

my panel came off of a Z28.
due to mine being cracked.

or you can take it off, sand it down and spray it.
maybe a gloss if you want or a flatt black if you want.

i think it makes any camaro look 100 times better.

i think it can look okay sometimes... but most the time i don't like it.. no offense... it doesn't look like something somebody did on purpose, its like somebody wrecked it and couldn't afford to paint the new one... or the ricey unpainted body kit look...

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

I'm sure you guys remember my painting red accents into the interior and doing red and black seat covers, neons in the floorboards, etc etc, right? Well it hit me one day that it didn't look all that great, so I'm getting rid of it all. I'm trying to sell it to some random ricer. :P They'll throw it in some POS honda. I'm trying to decide what I want to do to make my car look much better. I'm gonna go with a grill, camaro embroidered floor mats, and possibly this berger panel thing. What is involved in painting this? How would I go about it? What visual mods do you guys recommend?

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

what to do with the hood? Are you talking about a scoop or cowl?

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

I don't get the berger panal idea either... Although, I also don't get the CETA rear bumper being black, so I guess I just like all panels painted the same color :).

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

Oh and on RKsport, there are some stripes that are listed as fitting a 98-02 Camaro, but they are still listed under the 93 3.4 section. Would they fit on mine? They say they line up using tabs identifying where things are, such as the hood, spoiler, etc.

Well some people like others dont.

Get a SS hood or a cowl or something different.

Re: What is that called? (and whistler mods.)

lmao here they are. Here's a few different pics.













Here are a few different pics of my 93 'Maro. I have since repainted the black stripes. They were fading and the paint was coming off. :P
