I have a set of white ZR1's that I am thinking about powdercoating because a friend said since his shop is doing so well he would do them any way I want them! My car is a Red SS with a drop and my current wheels are c6 Z06 chrome spokes.......thought about black with red lip.....what would you do...?

Does it have a grille?
- - - If so, what kind/color?
Does it have the "Berger" panel mod?
- - - If so, what color? (ex: satin, flat, gloss)
R your calipers painted?
- - - If so, what color and is it painted 1/2 tones?
There are a lot more factors that I would consider before I would make a decision.
It would help if you'd post some pics of the car...

No paint on cals...pannel is stock.. Has Black SS grill with Red SS eblem. its lowered a couple inches as well....used to have chrome zr1's 17x 11...but ran into a white set....even thought about keeping them white and doing a couple white stripes on the SS....
Will do calipers red when I put them on if that helps. Give me ideas guys.

I want to maybe do the red all the way into the dish up to where there wheel spokes start....then have the wheels in gloss black! I will wait til spring but it should be sweet!
This sound good? Any other ideas? I think making the red go further in will give more depth to the wheels also! This guy does good work.

Here's the only pic i had with the car lowered, black "berger panel", and gloss black wheels from the rear...

I'm also debating a red "pin stripe" on the very outer edge....like 1/8th inch thick. My friend has the whole lip done red, and it looks a bit too much.....kinda like the orange Camaro....if it were thinner, it would be that much more subtle....but it's your car.

The only time I think your idea would make sense is on a nice high line wheel
This guy is local to me. this car is very nice...
