I vote no. The old Vipers had that look. I wasn't fond of it IMHO.

I say go chrome or black.

do whatever you want, it's your car. Either one of the options that you put up look cool/unique imho and no matter how often you hear people post about custom wheels on the forum about 99% of the camaro's you see on the street will be stock, so you're will stand out!
