i like it. i kinda agree though, black with a polished lip would've looked pretty schweet. either way, props for being different.

i personally don't think internet pictures do it any justice. i bet if you all saw it in person, it would be sweet. i love the idea! not many people on here like my pinstriping at all, but in person, i've gotten nothing but compliments. so, i think it would look much better in reality.

I think it looks good, though the polished lip would look better.

its a matter of opinion. Some like black some like chrome some like polished some like silver. The end result is that the person who customizes his vehicle is happy with his work.

I'm not typically a fan of black wheels, but your car looks like it is ready to come over and whoop someone

It looks good. I had the same on my old 97 LT1 (which was black) Found that dark metallic grey will actually stand out better than the black, and still give the "dark look"...... something to think about

i was thinking that or a glasstek 4''. but definatly the black stripes on the side. and for whoever said the exhaust is low, its becasue it was just put on and has no hanger lol. it'll be welded in and then dropped about an inch.
