I taped off the area and sanded it with 300 grit sandpaper. Then I used 3 coats of flat black followed by 1 coat of clearcoat. Overall it was very easy to do, the hardest part is taping it off evenly.

Tint the tailights, tint the sidemarkers, get some black rocker panel stripes (no words), black 18" DD bullitts and some Sportlines. And....you're done
Edit: Oh...and 20% tint, and yes...black bumper inserts.

Paint the side scoops the same flat black... There's a yellow GT around here, painted his hood scoop flat black, side scoops flat black, and spoiler flat black... it's sex.
PLEASE don't get black wheels, yuck.
Edit: Black rocker stripes would look good, too. Black bumper inserts, and painting your spoiler flat black may look good too... black on red is a very nice combo.
