Like the wheels alot man! Those center caps really match though? Reflection or not, they look real different. I'm not a stripe fan, but the sedate black looks good bro!

black out the sidemarkers and to the berger mod in flat black. I would might also black out the 3rd brake light and remove the chevorlet emblem by the ss badge in the back.
Car looks great man. Killer job!

Thanks everyone. Got the stripes from 3rdgendecals.com. I plan on doing the Whistler mod soon but I don't have the time to do it before the Power Tour so this is how it will look for a little while.
I had already bought the black chrome wheels and I didn't think the silver stripes would look right with the black chrome. My second choice would've been the dark charcoal metallic. I'm pretty happy with the way these turned out though. The pictures really don't do it justice at all. I had clear corners on it but I didn't like the way the light shined through on those so I opted to tint the factory ones.
The 17's were a budget choice. I already had decent tires so I bought the 17's instead of the 18's.

!!!Different than most AND it looks good, can't beat that
Here's my idea though, regarding the Whistler mod...
When you paint them, DO NOT scuff the chrome and paint it with a TRANSLUCENT BLACK (like the red I used on my tail lights, got it from the hobby store) spray paint and then the Whistler mod will look like BLACK CHROME (like the wheels)
If it doesn't work you can just respray them in Satin to match the stripes
Then a Berger (satin black) back panel with some black chrome CAMARO inserts and she'll be done
