Thanks the holes in the grill are going to be filled in to make it look a lot cleaner -- unless I change my mind again.

Yeah at times I think I want to drop the car down a bit in the rear but as the shop put it to me tonight "with a tire under there it will be so much better then lowered. plus it looks so aggressive now" .... who knows I might drop the rear end of it down a bit.

Thanks everyone for the comments

At first I hated black wheels until we put a set next to my car .... it was over from there. Sold my brand new C6's, and went with the Privat's. To be honest I had to search a bit for them. They were on back order from Privat. I had one of the local Tires/Wheel shops here look for me and then had them shipped in. Good luck in finding another set - watch ebay or the boards and you can probably find them.

As for price .... I dont mind telling. I know I probably spent WAY too much but oh well so is life they look good. It ran me just at 1K for wheels alone (18's are not cheap )

BTW: YES that is a flat black SS .... it is actually my room mates and I just realized I was logged in under his name. I will post up pictures tomorrow.

The only thing I dont like about the wheels are the "long" looking rivets. I would have bought them already if it wasn't for that.

Yeah they sure let everyone that they are Privat's .... They are a BITCH to keep clean too, but very well worth it all.

I have 2 bruised fingers from catchin' them on the rivets when cleaning the wheels.
