    Looks great! There's a green '95-97 GM on my street that belongs to a real-estate agent. His Merc is mint.

      Dear Panthers,
      I like the idea of black trim. How can it be done so it stays black?

        sand it first to give the paint a better surface to stick to.

            Hey thanks for having a look..... Yes...sand it all very well and then thin coats of black then the last 2 coats I did heavier.
            Then 3 coats of clear....So far, even in ice and snow and salt it seems to be holding up just fine.
            Got those 3:55's and posi in BTW and what fun those back roads are now.
            Not only that but I walked up my driveway with it in 10 cm of snow- heavy stuff and uphill.
            Nice!
