Does the back panel between the taillights get painted black?

The 1968 Coronet R/Ts and 500s have a different tail panel than the SuperBees.
All the bees pictured on Andy's site are painted from what I can see. Here is a link: http://www.andy440.com/68Bee.htm

The back panel on the 1968 Superbee was a decal not painted. I got mine from Performance Car Graphics. The decal is 4 pieces 2 sides and a top and bottom. When I did my car the bottom decal did not fit correct. I called and told them about the problem, They asked if I could take some measurements and they would make a new one for me. I sent back the decal that didn't fit with the new measurements on it and they made up a new one for me. Plus an extra one a little larger in case it didn't fit. They even payed for the shipping both ways and sent me something for my time! Great customer service.

The turquoise car is actually what the stripes are based off of. His was in Mopar Muscle a few years back. performance car graphics

edit: he also told me to get the one that doesnt have the key hole part cut out, it's supposed to be black all around.

Yes, all '68 'Bees received the black tail panel decal. It is also noteworthy that the decal was always black regardless of the tail stripe color, or omission... I do not believe that the decal could be deleted, but I'm sure it could be removed by the dealer should the owner so choose. Any pics to post of your car?
