Black lower half, black tailights and black license plate frame looks kickass. If you don't black out the bottom of the body, then do the bezels in black and leave the plate frame body color.

If executed properly that would rock!i'd suggest a bumper from an '80-84 Towncar w/ the bumper mounted rear plate, but those carry that damn bumper stripChris - A 20th Century Man \m/ ^.^ \m/Comment

Blaze,
You have got to go body color on the trim, but 3m tint the brake and reverse lenses. Then maybe blake out the plate box.Comment

Looks best stock to me to be honest. Never been a big fan of those stripey things on taillights, and I really do not like beige.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Yea, that looks good. I like the '79-'82s with the black more than the '83-'87s. I'd love to see the '79-'82s in black on a black vic... oooooooooooo.Originally posted by DuceAnAHalf1984 Ford Crown Vic LTD, The Murphmobile (RIP)

FWIW, I say leave it stock. The monochrome treatment looks pretty god, but I honestly like it better how it is now.
Perhaps if *only* the chrome bezel was body color, and the tail light lens was left alone.
I'm not a lover of the blackout with the beige/ivory.
I think it seems funny w/o the rear plate, it helps break up the paint.
Also, I think a pinstripe would look nice on the car. It will help break up the color on the sides a lot. I would use gloss black 3m pinstriping tape.-My Homepage, Panther info & FAQs-
