    could the pics be more blurry?

    black rims look good.. so do chrome..

    now its definately more stealthy..

    but ultimately not very stealthy with that spoiler/wing on the back.. you stick out like a sore thumb, negates the blackness

      i like the wing... i dunno about everything bein black though... havin a lil more color or clear stuff would look good...just like clear corners or somethin.. that would set it off a little

Looks like a black blob on blurry pics.
        IMHO black rims only look good/decent if they have a polished lip.

          Well what i wanted to do is make the whole car black. All i need now is the front black outs and like 5% tint to complete my goal.

          Maybe some red/yellow calipers to set it off a bit?

                          the wing needs to go, replace it with an SS spoiler, they look best on 4th gen camaro's. im really sorry but yours looks like a bad case of rice...but btw, the rims look good!

                            I don't know how many times I've read people posting about how Robert should take the wing off his Camaro. If he doesn't like it, he can take it off. Give the guy a break.

                            I like the wheels though. I was going to go with black Z06's on my black Firebird with blackouts all around, but I ended up getting clear corners, somebody stole my blackouts, and I can't afford rims at the moment lol.

                              Um, he posts asking what people think of his car, so we should lie and say we think it looks great?

                              I don't like that flat black on black. I think the other wheels looked better because they were chrome, although I'm not a big fan of 3-spokes. Maybe if they were a really glossy black or black chrome instead of flat.
