What type of rear blackout panel to get?

I'm trying to decide what kind of rear blackout panel to get, and it's looking like this one is the easiest to install since it's magnetic:

Anyone have any luck with this kind?

On the note of installation, I've never done a vinyl install before. Is that a difficult process? If it isn't and is somehow better than the magnetic one, I guess I should go with one of these: http://www.ridergraphix.com/2010_Cam..._Blackout.html

I don't even have my Camaro yet and I'm already buying an accessory for it.

Check these threads on the magnetic trunk panel - http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...magnetic+trunk & http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...magnetic+trunk

As I indicated in the first thread above if you don't check under the magnet to clear out any moisture you'll get white clouding which is a bear to remove.

I went with the Ridergraphix in Dark Charcoal Metallic (@ ~$40.)- I had them professioanlly installed along with my Hood Spears (@~$80) - pics attached - cost me $48 in labor at my local shop for both.

IMO - go with the vinyl and only install if you've got experience. Good luck.

That moisture thing does not sound good. Okay, vinyl it is. I'm planning on getting a clear bra installed, so maybe I can get them both done at the same time.

Thanks.
