I have the same car, except black wheels and I don't have the silver stripe on the side.
I have to say, I prefer mine.

People don't know just how heavy they are too!
Chrome wheels are not performance items!

Looks decent, not a fan of the black on the bottom of the sides though.... or the chrome wheels.
My father always said "Chrome don't bring it home"
LOL

Your right. Just a wanna be. You can do almost anything with a few stickers and a $100k.

pretty sure the yellow and black one's are the " wannabe's" of the real C7R. And the sticker package C7.R offered for sale by GM come's with none of the stickers the OP added to his car. I much prefer his car to the C7.R package offered my GM.

It's just a homage to the race cars. I was just fooling around a bit. I run in the Optima Ultimate Street car events and we have to fly their decals while competing so I was just adding a few for this past weekend's event. I'm sure I will take them off at the end of the season if not sooner or something else strikes my fancy.

That looks awful. The chrome wheels typically would be worst part, but you one-upped them with the vinyl.

I have a c7r..... you need a Jake decal on hood....different wheels....suede interior....c7r roof....c7r plaque....embossed c7r on seats...carbon fiber steering wheel dash and console....it's just a cosmetic package but it's a lot of stuff different.....otherwise kinda close......)in seriousness I think white is a great color on this car and yours looks good

I'd say the preference for chrome is more closely tied to demographics than age. Quite a few are 50 or older in my Porsche and Ferrari groups and it's extremely rare to see one on chrome wheels. We also dress completely different and don't bring folding chairs to events, but that's another story...

LOL at best c7z that fool has yet to see. Chrome does not look good with white, need some contrast, besides if you are tracking that, those chrome wheels are going to become grey/black from all the brake dust.

I dont like black wheels on dark cars or dark colored cars (blue, mystic chrome, BLACK), but the car is white and needs a different color/shade than chrome. Maybe dark bronze will really set it off.
