LOL. I thought I was the only one that had "rules" for their Camaro!! haha. They will look great, especially cleared. She'll come around.

Here is the color i picked.

That will look sweet!!!

Only problem is the plastic Chevy center caps. He can’t powder them. Also i asked about the lug nuts and he said to just buy new ones. So I’m thinking either paint the caps and lugs black or order some custom mix paint to match the bronze. What would you guys do?
The lugs are very noticeable on these zl1 rims. Would the black clash or make it a nice combo.

Black lugs for sure, be a nice contrast. Maybe wrap the center caps instead of paint?

SlowLS1 · 12-13-2023, 05:53 PM

If you know the RAL number for the powder coating, getting paint to match should be no issue.

I’ve already found a color match. It’s a factory Harley Davidson color.

That does look good!

If you’re not going for a completely blacked out or “dark” look you’d be surprised how good chrome lug nuts would look with your oem center caps. A little contrast can look nice and classy.

Bronze is good choise.

acutron42 · 12-14-2023, 04:54 AM

Maybe you could pick up a set of caps like these & play around with with color combinations.
