Only had 1800 miles on the stingray 2016 but found a z06 2016 zl2 2016 with only 2600 miles on it and extended warranty. Love the color but not a big fan of chrome wheels. Any idea what cost would be to paint chrome black? Dealer 1st said $75 per wheel but then after checking with service said the chrome has to be sanded before painting black. did not give me a price


tks Ted

Why not trade them with someone for black.

My brother sprayed on this kind of wrap I guess. Looked good. You can peel it off and start over with other colors.

That plastikote stuff seems to work well for the kids. My son's friend did his truck wheels, and I can't speak to how durable it is or isn't, but it covered quite well.

I personally think dark blue is one of the colors where chrome looks best - not a fan of black on blue, but of course each person has their preference and it's your car... I just think it looks great as is!

Heck, add some silver stripes and it'd be perfect for me :-)

That's a good idea the dark or navy blue with the color car above nice!

I never had chrome only aluminum rims...But my buying quest has shown me they look good on this car in person.

yea I'm thinking I may get used to it. Had chrome wheels on by black C6
Just that it really pops compared to the black/steel wheels on my stingray
that I traded in. Power/Torque is amazing

Don't Z06's come with rockers?

I am not a big fan of chrome but sure looks good on your car.

With the Z07 package. why does it look like a fake Z06?

Congrats Ted. Great looking car, enjoy it. I'm envious and really like the blue with the chrome.

The chrome wheels looks sharp, I like it. Congrats!!

I bet you could find someone with nice black wheels to swap even up with.

OnPoint

Probably less hassle to swap wheels with somebody who wants chrome.

Or go get some aftermarket wheels - lots of options there, and your car won't look like everybody else's.

Consider changing out those brake pads. Those chrome wheels are hard to keep looking clean.

[QUOTE=Ted P;1595031541]ha! no. I just thought that all Grand Sports and Z06s came with rockers.

[QUOTE=Ted P;1595031541] They didn't become standard until 2017. Prior they were only part of the Z07 package I believe.

2016 Z's came with rockers if you ordered the aero 3 package only. All 2017 Z's come with rockers as delivered. Paul
