Well you can plastidip the wheels (what I meant by dipped) and that'll just cost you 2-3 cans of plastidip, maybe $20 tops. That's what I've done to my wheels.

Powdercoating should cost you around or less than $400 for all four rims. Not counting taking the tires off the rims, and remounting them, which should cost around $50.

I wouldn't dish out $800 for the same rims in black, you can do that yourself easily on your current rims.

I live in Norcal and ended up getting it from San Jose because the people at Kuni Chevrolet in Sacramento were being jerks! I couldn't find any other ones in Cali then!

I dunno about you guys, but I love seeing another 45th. There's another 45th in our club who joined right after me, and he's an awesome guy! I guess it's just me but it's cool to have another 45th similar to mine around! It's like we're unique but still almost identical.

Here's a few pics when we met at one of our first meets (I have the gold bowties):




Obviously my camaro looks a lot different now, lol, but it's still cool to know there's another 45th in our club. Something seems cooler about have 2 special edition model cars than just 2 cars with the same paint.


Now there's one 45th that actually lives close to me. It's a 2LT. And although I've never met him, I've seen him, and someday I want to park next to him and see the vast difference.

Welcome! Sounds like you got a great deal worked out with your dealer! Looking good too! Glad you got the LS3. Wayyyyyy more fun. (don't tell the auto guys! )

You don't by chance have any pics of that '70 do you?
