as for the OP, to help with your rim dieas, see if you can find some local guys with camaros, and see what rims they are running, get together and se if they will let you do a quick swap so you can see how it looks. just an idea. when it all comes together i think it will excellent either way.
never thought of that, thanks man. Will look into swapping some wheels. And for the all black wheel thing, i dont like it on most wheels, basically for the same reason you stated, but the 10 spokes look amazing all blacked out

^^^ there is a pic going around of a blonde chick w/ huge knockers next to an all black SS on Black 10 spokes.

There is also one around the corner from my parents house if you want me to snap a pic.



And the S2000 antenna screws right on.

Damn, there is a car in that pic! i looked it for awhile before i noticed the car... that does look good though.

Do everything that is done in that car you stated above, some of the stuff you wanted to get are going to make it look too busy....i like the stance of the car above, maybe invest in some new springs/shocks, the stance is like the biggest thing when it comes to a car's appearance IMO...

theres just something about the wheels on your car which is making it look not as good (i think the same for mine) they are tucked into the wheel wells too much....just doesn't make it look right....i think if they were out a little more (less offset, right) and lowered with 315's in the back thatd be one bad *** ride...

yea, i noticed that too when i fisrt took the pic, too much of an offset . Well i dont think busy because it's all gonna be satin black so it'll be really hard to notice until you see it in person and at the right lighting

yeah, my car is the same way, too much of an offset, i know they make spacers but not sure about safety on those.......and really its your car let your vision guide you...it's impossible to really see how good a car looks and analyze what needs to be done just by pictures....i can't ever get my car to look nearly as good in a picture as it does in person..

Not many people have the completely blacked out look. I personally think it would look killer.

My Z looks like your car all but minus the hood. I'm going to do some painted 10 spokes I believe, I'll post pictures when that time comes for ya if you're not done by them.
WOW. That SS with that girl is amazing looking.......speachless.

Black wheels on ANY car make me wanna puke... and blacking over the polished edges of the 35th anny wheels is just plain fugly.

Your car will go (in my opinion) from currently HOT to.... f'-that!!!
