Just wanted to post a pic of the Chrome Z06 Replica Wheels on a super chilly 85 degrees on the East Shore of Oahu.

Actually I saw you twice today, once down by the beach in Waikiki down by where they have the Movie Screen, at around 2 something and then I saw you drive by headed towards the scenic point/Hanama Bay direction, when I was at the parking area taking this photo, maybe about 3:30 PM or so I mean how can you miss that Sweet A$$ Z06 you got

Those are great looking shoes! Matches well with the silver, just like
2LT-Z51. I think his is polished though.
