I think it might be too much... What do you guys think?
If your gonna powdercoat them, do it gunmetal like the other Camaro's rims. Don't go black, your car'll look "dirty"

Nice Pic's. Mark your not allowed to get black rims or your out of the club "PHK"
No really black just doesn't look right on NBM Cars.
If you want rims bad get the Fikse rims from dick harrell car and call it done.
Yeah i know there expensive but just think how good it would look and save some money.
Trust me your 75% Dick Harrell now just finish it.

i like the way your car looks. the whistler actually fits well with your skeme. now i was hesitant on the splitter. i dont like it on the red car that much the black one is alright but your blue one deff makes it work buying one.

now did you ever figure out if your going to try and sell some or what?

Damn I wish I could have been there! I jumped on the offer to play the Dimebag Darrell benefit show last minute at the Keyclub on Sunday so I had to practice the whole day Saturday. It was worth it though because the show kicked *** & I got to hang out with Shakira on Sat.

I really don't understand you guys with your chin straps. Have you figured out how functional it is? I guess you'd need a wind tunnel to accurately test that but still... To each his own.

Very nice cars guys. I would stick with the magnesium wheels man. To be honest they just match your car. Quick question though. How much of a PITA was it to do your center fog lights? I'm doing those pretty soon myself except a little more unique. Did you wire them separately to their own switch or splice them in with your other fogs?

You honestly wanna know what I think would look best on your car and on a budget?



Not necessarily ZR1s, but gunmetal wheels would look great with your car's appearance

Your car is too retro to pull off black wheels, not to mention it's blue. My preference would be a set of multi-piece wheels with brushed centers, polished lips, and the bolts on the backside. Pricey, but they would look incredible.

Mike, i think the wheels are the "weak link".. (since you asked). Car looks great!
I say take some of that $$ that you are making from the "Splitters" and purchase a set of used Fikse FM5's off of this forum and call it a day.

JMO.

The cars are beautiful but the splitters looks out of place sorry These car are too high off the ground for splitters. Maybe a vette it would be great but not for a f-body sorry but at least its different i guess.

I hate to say it, but I'm gonna agree and say the splitters do look a lot out of place. I think they would look best on a pro-touring/slammed look. Not on a street car

I think black wheels just wouldn't look right on your car. The Magnesium whees you have the way they are, are just perfect and ties everything in nicely.

I've got to find me a set of the magnesium Zr1's like posted above.

Hey Mark I'm pretty sure Ian is selling his Z06 wheels, you know the ones with the black paint but polished aluminum face on the spokes and lips???
