I think it looks great with the lug nuts not painted... I've seen the car with painted nuts and unpainted center caps and vice versa. I guess when I get my mine I could just go step by step to see how it looks.

Love the look of your car! (y)

I love black rims, makes the car look dirty.

Nice, love the taillight surrounds.

Same here. It makes it look dull... and boring to me. But!! For that type of look? Great Job well done!

We just thought the all black in back would stand out better against the orange. If we did both the same with the orange center-black trim, it seems the back would kinda blend in with the orange paint. (Would look like an outlined bowtie?)
Black bowtie with chrome trim would look awesome against black paint. But leave all the other chrome alone. We also threw that idea around on mine but eventually blacked out all the chrome. Post pics when yours is done.

Thanks. Your color combo would have been my second choice. I never would have put the two colors together for some reason until I saw Hendrick's delivered. WOW! Good luck, hope it comes in soon!

Why don't you take it to the next step and post some pictures so I can see how my idea will look before I actually do it to my car :-]

big mike · 06-16-2009, 06:51 AM

it looks REALLY Bad ASS. only thing i would've done different is not paint the lip on the rims.

WeeZee · 06-16-2009, 08:13 AM

Your Camaro looks sick as hell. You pay attention to the finishing touch details. imho take the deck lid spoiler off and have it painted black and get the tails tinted to put it over the top

Wow! I think I like that. It was suggested. But until I saw it, I wasn't excited. Might have to go back to the paint shop now. Thinking about painting the stripes anyway?
Looks good. Thanks. (I think?)((More money, bummer.))

JJ#48Racing · 06-16-2009, 09:28 AM

Looks good, except I'd have made the bowtie's match.

Standard-Z · 06-16-2009, 12:32 PM

Looks great. Are the SS emblems red or orange? Should be oragne.

Shurenuff · 06-16-2009, 12:55 PM

Looks great! The blacked out tail looks really good with this combo to.

What kind of durability will the painted and clearcoated wheels have? Even though OEM is painted and clearcoated, I always hear people mention that when painting your wheels the paint is very prone to chip and that powdercoating is a better solution. The finish looks awesome, I'm just wondering how long they'll stay looking like that.
