I'd keep them original looking. But, that idea doesn't look too bad, either.

Just an idea I'd considered and not done anything about. Black electrical tape just to check it out. We'll see what daylight brings. Have thought about a metallic black paint or stick-on pin stripe that could be easily removed later if desired.
Various $1000 + wheels would be better... this is a "poor man's Vette"!!!
sniff.. sniff
