I'll be the first to say, this thread is pointless. With that out of the way, this is the scene in the parking lot at my office today. I run an Army Recruiting Center and 3 of us are proud Corvette owners. My torch red C5 is in the middle, the silver C6Z is mostly stock. The black C6 that can't park makes 500rwhp with cam/heads etc...

...Sinister-one, I had for the longest time shared your view about black wheels for years, and as I prepared to completely detail my car for the largest Corvette meet on the West coast held in San Diego. I got to the point of dreading to polish out all my aluminum wheels (hours of detail work) 'again', and on a whim I ran down and purchased some black plastic dip and did my wheels in 2 hours. Upon finishing and installing them, I realized that it changed the whole look and attitude of my FRC and I really liked it. While at Sea Port Village, I was shocked by the numerous compliments received, I'm just saying that sometimes change is good in life and it won't be the last one I do on my car, next mod, turbo's !!!!!!...
