I think it looks pretty good. Not the norm, but accentuates the look of the other components of the car.

I like em! It's always cool seeing Vettes customized to the owners liking. My only critique, would be maybe trying to paint the locks to match.

Did the car locks. To be honest, I didn't like it so put new ones back on.

I like it. Get rid of the rest of the chrome, too!
You can start with the rocker panels.
