Default Car completed (NHRA SUPERHAWK)

Finally got the car painted, detailed, lowered, and clean. The hood is an original US Exotics Superhawk from Roger. The car is lowered on BMR springs, and is sitting on 18" Rohana wheels/Nitto Tires. It is a 77k mile NHRA edition, bolt ons, 9 inch, black leather (headrest by Grant). I am debating on whether or not to get the Trans Am emblems for the doors from Emblem pros in a Black with Red Outline. Let me know what you think.

Looks great. I say go for the Trans Am emblems from EmblemPros. I think they will go great with your overall theme.

I'm also not a fan of black wheels but it's your car, other then that your car looks awesome.

I say leave the TA emblems off the door. Lines are much cleaner on TA's without them.

I echo the sentiments in this thread...love everything except for the wheels. Something about the spokes and the offset is just...off.

Thanks everybody. I realize the wheels arnt for everybody especially being black. I dont like chrome, polished or a combination of either so Im left with few options lol. I wanted something other than a replica wheel, zr1s, TT and not wanting to shell out the money for CCW/FIKSE I found these and I personally love them. Thanks again everybody

Personally I like the wheels. I don't like red cars, but I like yours and that's saying something

car looks great , nice to see some uncommon rims on it . I love that hood fit . I think the trans am decals would look good on the doors, it also looks good without them too.

only thing i suggest is stock rear side markers and for the front use camaro rear stock ones bc they are red . My brother has them on his red 00 hawk and it looks great .

Your car looks good not much i can think visually to do to it . Maybe paint the lip of the rims red??\

Car looks great

Looks good with the black wheels, I think if you tinted the Fogs the front end would look even better. I did that on my black car and I think it looks great, I tinted the turns and the fogs and with it all being black it looks sinister!

Hood looks great. I really like red Trans Ams, yours looks good, and I don't have a problem with the wheels personally.
