Sorry, the black wheels just don't do it for me.

Maybe they look better in person.

The car looks so much better now. I too am not on board with the black wheels. As far as the calipers, I'd go blk with white or silver letters. Keep up the good work.

Your the best thing that ever happened to that VETTE!

The transformation is amazing.

That orange racing stripe was pretty bad.

The black repro ZR1 wheels look great.
I have repro Z06 black rims and OEM Z06 red calipers ...and can tell you first hand that the red caliper pokin thru the black rim looks killer!!

Good luck with her..
