Another voice here to keep the wheels, don't go black. Your wheels look great on NBM!

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.
Did you see that NBM on friday night at Bobs....THAT car was the ****!!

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

I think you need a new set of rims, their too plain honestly, on a car thats so stunning, they are the first thing I notice, their dull and you see em everywhere... Nothing bad ment, but I'd be looking into saving for some really nice classy chrome wheels, or maybe even gunmetal spoked rims, something, ccw's?

Not a big PITA at all. Do a search under my old screen name, DEMONBIRD and you'll find a write-up.

I used an extra, factory, fog light switch to arm them...

To each their own... For me I first saw them on GTO's:




With support rods


...and at first didn't like them. Then saw in person and on Josh's car in pics and grew to love them.

Having first been introduced to splitters on cars via GTO's (non-low street cars) and having seen these in person, I love them

You mean like these. They have the machined face with black on the inside of the spokes.
