if you already own the black rims, i like the second pic. but the rims dissapear. i think i would like the top with black outside ring and chrome or white center.
just me, but my wife hates my sense of color. just saying.

Sorry, older cars were designed for chrome and look better with chrome. Blackout treatment looks OK on Hondas...

Last pic as long as it's gloss black. If it's a flat black then stick with the chrome. There's a reason they don't make cars with chrome bumpers anymore

Exactly.
It can't be flat black. It has to be more of a satin.

I'm not really a white car kinda guy because I think only service vehicles should be white.
But #4 is definitely the best looking IMO too.

maybe not the answer you are looking for but, stare at them for an hour or so right before bedtime, sleep on it, and do it the way you wake up feeling good about in the morning.
Its your car, do it your way. You can already see by the posts only half the people are not going to like it which ever way you go.

Default Another Vote for #4

Chalk up another one for #4. #2 and #3 are pretty slick to, but with the car in that low the all chrome treatment makes me think Lo'rida. But if that is waht you are going for...

I also agree with everyones satin or black chrome recommendations. Good luck!

Well as of right now the rims are satin black. I tried to have them black chromed but it didn't turn out so they re stripped them and I had them powder coated satin black! My GOAL is a show/driver but I want something you don't see. Every car show I go to 95% of the cars are alike. So hopefully it will be the odd ball in the group.

don't getto it up by blacking out everything. It is a classic car. Treat it that way.
