Berger panel brake light mod?

So some people and I on another forum were wondering how this would look if the berger panel on a 4th gen. I have a photoshop (Presented below) that looks sort of like a brake light but more like reflective lettering. Tell me what you guys think. All Input is appreciated.

I would contemplate doing it. Shoot...I just might if it's red just like the brake lights. Too bad I really can't do the Berger mod since my SS is all black anyway....unless I do a flat or satin black......or just a whole different color completely.

I don't know how you'd get the "CAMARO" to light up. It would have to be cut out. There isn't much room behind the panel as well. ....and then I'd have to get rid of my chrome "Camaro" inserts...hehe...not good.

ive thought about doing something like that. actually it would be relatively simple to do. drill small holes to mount LEDs into and wire them up to the tail light harness. hmmmm... you gave me a great idea.
