Anthracite with a polished or machined silver lip always looks good with NBM. I've had black, chrome, polished, ect. Anything can be done to look good with the right size, tire choice, and stance.

I would say no to black on a NBM T/A, but I've seen some NBM Camaros that look decent.

The gun metal always looks good on NBM no matter what T/A-Camaro.

Or you could always go chrome/polished!

Somewhere in the OE Wheels thread I saw a NBM Camaro that the C5 machined face wheels with the black vents that looked awesome. If I had a NBM TA I would go with those for sure.

iv had gunmetal grey tt2's on mine before and it looked good but i prefer an all polished wheel personally, chrome is too much shine for me. i just sold my tt2's for a set of polished ZR1's from oe wheels
