wow, that looks awesome. Thats almost exactly what I'm thinking about doing with my machine silver C6Z, but my problem is, I'm starting with the "standard" silver painted factory rims.....and I want to do powder coated black with either a machine or polished lip. Is it possible to machine the lip on a standard wheel?
my other thought was, if machining or polishing a standard rim isn't possible, could the lip be powder coated maybe a color like silver and the rest of the rim powdercoated semi-glass black? I just want something to "break up" the blackness of a black tire right against a black rim. Me thinks that would look killer against a machine silver car

EXACTLY!!!! Nuff Said
Do what you want with it, it's your car...plus the more you guys mess with the original the better it is for the guys like me that keep it original. How many rodded out '53's are worth more than an original. I know I'll get some flames here but if I wanted to 'rod a car' it would be a Judge (still gm) or a 427 Chevelle. Vette's are to be original, so mod it out and save the value for me:

Lottsa Colours
Hey Why black ? White? Comp. Silver Grey???
There are thousands of colours, keep looking till you find something really different!!!!!! That you like!!
For me black wheels belong on the ricers. They take what might have been a good looking car (wheels DO make the car)and turn it into something pretty boring.
Hey just my opinion right? GOOD LUCK!
