Black in black always adds a sinister look. My car is black on black. I'm thinking on removing the flames though. I need an opinion.

I don't like flames because it seems to played out to me like if anyone has a different paint scheme it's flames send me pics though!Anyone got pics of a red ttop with black grill and black rims? that would look sweet with some black housed headlights or halos! I think the black and red accent would look effin sweet.

I would have to agree with this.

If you put blackouts all your lights we wouldn't be able to see it in the dark I would love to put the Z06 motorsport black ones on my car though, those wheels are SWEET! But the regular Z06 wheels do look good on a black car though.

"Lord Vader, your car is ready....."

I like it. Looks pretty mean. I do agree with whoever said a black billet grille up fron would look good. I would also go ahead and tint the rear corner lamps too since that red linda sticks out. As for the chrome edge on the rim, I can see it either way.... do what YOU like!

I love the look of that black wheels with the polished lip. However, I am not a fan of the all black.

How would you polish just the lip? Have you noticed that the Firehawk rims don't really have lips.

I have to agree with Hayze on this one....I have a Red WS6, and I tend to fly low...and would definitely hit the brakes hard and be like "OH ****!"

LMAO.....Love the Look!! I think I would go just a lil darker on the windows....
