I thought that car looked awesome. I would not mind trading up my black ZR1s for those.

To my knowledge that yellow car on ebay was a one-off SEMA car, used to display the BFG Comp T/As back in '99 or so. The only hardtop LS1 T/A ever

Brian is a private dealer at a body shop. HE does NOT own tropi-care. Steve Pasztor is the owner of Tropi-Care and they sponsor LS2.com now LS1.com

Wheels with black *centers* look good on SOM. While I was waiting for my new wheels to come in, and my old wheels had been sold, I borrowed a set of solid black Y2K C5 wheels from a friend to roll on for a while. Did not look good to me...

I only took a few pics, and they're poor quality, but you can see 'em here:
