Need some opinions on my car's looks (pics)
I recently got my rims powder coated in black an I love how they look. My parents did it for me as an early Christmas present and when I woke up today it was done. The guy that did it said that he couldn't powder coat the center caps because they are plastic, but he could paint them for me if I want. My original plan was to get my rims all black and change my "Camaro" badges to black along with the taillight bezels, but I think the car also looks nice as is. What do you guys think? Should I go for an all black and red look or leave some chrome?

I think it will look good both ways. There's always the tail bezels that match chrome wise. And the bowties.
But if you went all black it would still look good. Personally, I enjoy it how it is already because the opposing colors make each other stand out even more. |

I think it is just plain sexy the way it is. VERY nice looking ride.
Going black on the rest MIGHT be a bit much... might not. But if it looks damn sexy the way it is why not put it off for a little while and think about it? Maybe take some pics and photoshop them black and see what you think?

Funny thing is, this was done by mistake. I expected my rims to be all black when the work was done Again, this was a surprise and I didn't know my parents were having it done. My brother recently got new rims and they knew I wanted to powder coat mine so they sent my brother's to get powder coated without me knowing. When I woke up today, this is what I saw and I thought, "Damn they look pretty good, but all black would look nice too. Especially if I change the badges and taillight bezels." Thanks for all the compliments guys!
