Ok guys and gals...Whats your opinion on stripping the flat black paint on the rocker panels under the doors? Have seen them done on a black 1980. The stainless steel look look's nice. |headscratch|

Personally, not into the stainless. I just scuffed mine and repainted them with the original paint. Just my humble opinion

I removed all the flat black paint from my 80 rockers. I think it's a great improvement! I had a couple of small dents on the driver side . I took it to a local body shop , and for 15 dollars they made it look new.I plan on removing all the flat black on my vette. I prefer the flashey look on a light colored vette.I really didn't know if someone had painted them black or if it came that way stock.Now i know ...Thanks |wavey| I think it would be best to remove them before striping them. I did and i'm a happy camper!

They came from the factory that way. What color is your vette?
