Looks good bud. I'm not sure what the megs three piece consists of but if you want to add a bit more depth just go ahead and apply a single coat of pure carnauba wax over what you have now.

Also, claying the car would be recommended if it was never done.

Looks great! Those black Z06's look amazing with the pinstripe, I think those are the exact wheels I will eventually get for my car

thanks guys for the compliments.

---SMOKE EM : i did use the crystal wax

---SKZ28 : you should go with the wheels. the pen stripe is powercoated on.
i think the wheels will look better on a red car.
alot of guys dont like black wheels on a black cars...but i love it.

Black wheels CAN look pimp on a black car...it's all in the design/coloring (satin spokes/gloss lips, gloss spokes/flat lips etc). Yours pulls it off good because those rims are clean and simple in design.

You want one simple touch that'll make your C6Z wheels stand out? Add the C5Z center cap to them...

Yeah I love it too, they look great on your car. I've been wanting black C6 Z06's for a while, and after seeing the pic of yours with the red stripe I am now 100% sure thats what I want!

ive been looking into somthing like this, but the only thing i dont like about these wheels, is that the center cap just snaps off...wish they would of added some kind of way were you could skrew them on atleast.
