On silver frost SVTs, thearea around te exhaust is in a flat black, really setting off the rear bumper... black svt's dont have that luxury, but how would a black svt look if you made that area matte black anyways? Anyone do this and have pics, or can anyone photoshop this?

nobody eh? wow, i thought at least one person would have done this, or someone could have photoshoped it...guess not
 
really? I just always assumed that ALL SVT's regardless of color had that black matt area around the exhaust...

are you sure your rear bumper was not repainted? if the black ones do not then I stand corrected but I find it odd that they would not do the same process for all the cars as they should all get painted the same way as it must be automated.

well if it is done how my bumper was painted the whole thing was body color first then the exhaust cut-out was painted flat black ...

Every black SVT I've seen has the painted valance.

It's so hard to tell the difference.. black on black, but this is the best picture I could find :shrug:

i meant i am going to go ahead and paint mine matte black, i dont think it will matter much, so if it doesnt look good, no big deal, it'll be cool until i paint it white
 
Here's a slightly clearer PS, thought the sky's reflection on the upper part of the car makes it look a little off.

So black svt's don't come with a matte finish rear valence? I was wondering why my bumper didnt have it, I just assumed it was repainted.
 
on a black car, having the lower valance clear coated looks perfect, on silver, red and green, the flat black fits that..
