Default New rims on my one of a kind pewter trans am!!
So I got the car out of storage and touched up a few things, fixed a few misc. interior problems, painted the brake calipers, and put on my new rims. What do you think?

Do you even need a hood like that? If not, i think it would look better with a WS9/Raptor/Stock WS6 hood. Just my opinion, otherwise I like the new rims/painted calipers!

That hood is pointless. I'm sorry but it ruins the car.

I don't like the hood , BUT if there is a 900hp blown BB in there you have an excuse
If not is no different then sticking a banana in your pants to impress your date.

wheels look nice, not sure if you have a reason or not, but your front rotors are on the wrong sides, just FYI

Thanks for the compliments. The hood was on it this way when I got it. I like it because it's unique and not everyone has one and I mostly get compliments.

BTW This thread was about my rims NOT my hood.
