Default C5 Y2K thin-spokes on '96 vert - pic inside.

Thoughts? I like em, a little less offset in the rear would have been nicer, I've got some BFH work to do this weekend, and the bump-stops get in the way if you don't jack the car by the axle. I had to massage the centers of the wheels with some sandpaper as the rears didn't want to get on the hub, but they were ok once I took a bit off them.

Looks good. Tan top? I think they would look good powdercoated white and then a white top and clear corners.

Yea, I know it - previous owner neglected them pretty badly, they are basically beyond restoring to a nice finish, except for the first 2-3 inches of pipe. They will likely be replaced at some point.

Yea, its a tan top - here is a picture top-up. Some people hate on the tan, and I'm sure when it gets a big stain in it I will too, but for now I don't mind it, and when it gets messed up, I'll paint it black.
