    Would love to if I could find the rims AND tires for ~$200 Otherwise - plastidip it is! I really do like the idea of doing 35th anniversary style rims (everything black except the face of the spokes), but we'll see.

    Lowering it is out of the question since this is a daily driver and will be driven through the snow.

        Now plastidip the chin inline with the grille for that ZL1 like appearance.
        That would look great.

          And I drove my car through two winters while lowered...not this past one, but it was fine as well, as long as your careful.

            "Eye shadow" painted on with plastidip. I really like it - I think it's a throw back to the 3rd and 4th gen headlight pockets. And surprisingly Angie really likes it too - I didn't think she would.

            the lower grill on the 2014 is the only thing I really dislike about them, it looks awful with that huge 3-4" wide textured plastic strip at the top.

                      • Looks good B, I think doing the wheels would be to much. besides I hate black wheels unless there is a polished lip and spokes.

                          Grill is available, but the flowtie is a restricted part. But you can easily make your own.

                          • I like the headlight "pockets" too, but in a way, it would have been fun to do the entire grille surround in argent, as a nod to one of Doug W's favorite pet peeves!

                            I almost hate to say this, but Cherry Bomb is quickly turning out to be far awesome-r than Clifford. The richer shade of red and Chevy's mid-cycle enhancements to the car really made a lot of difference.

                            And aren't you glad now you didn't name this car after a dog dick?

                              • Every time I saw plastidip mentioned I was wondering how much longer until you joined the thread Brent.


                                Really shitty photoshop but this is what I was thinking. Leave the "face" of the spokes alone, but paint the "inside" of each spoke and rim but leave a lip all the way around as well.
