i am thinking about doing the same (when i get my silver gt Fastback euro-premium pack next year in may)

i am thinking of painting it in frost silver like the Panel of this 1972 Ford (europe) granada coupe

here is the answer

paint it and get the Chrome bezels for the taillights (of the 50th anni car)

why?

look here:

I had considered painting a badgless panel but I think it wouldn't look right unless you painted the area around the tail lights as well. What does everyone else think?

 

[Strokerswild]

Agreed, I think the area around the taillights would have to be painted as well or it would look weird.

And yes, the 50th bezels would add a nice touch.

I've been thinking about doing this as well to make it a matte finish...but you definitely will need to do the tail light surrounds as well. I'm waiting to see it done before I go for it.
