Your car looks great and that's a nice looking piece of CF. It looks like it would fit just fine with a Toms, Wald or ARKYM rear bumper style diffuser. I wonder how that would look, it would add functionality.

I guess I'm part of the No Class ISF owners club

To each his own, but personally, your rims look like the cheap crap that the base-level Camaro has. I hate that chrome lip, dark center look. Those Camaros make me sick. Sorry.

I'm normally not a fan of chrome but I personally like the look of chrome lipped wheels and dark colored spokes. It looks great on this car especially!

Your car has a really clean drop! Props!

WTF are you talking about? In what way do his custom 3 piece, stepped lip, forged rims look anything like the Camaro rims? If you're going to hate, atleast be accurate.



personally I think 19's look small on the F, but I remember reading that you were going for performance over aesthetics after selling the CF 20's.

^ he's talking about the base model V6 Camaros.



He's not hating, he just gave his opinion. Some like chrome lips some don't

I HOPE MY CAR DOESNT LOOK LIKE A BASE CAMARO! Ive been thinking about sending the wheels out to have the lips painted gloss black to hide the brake dust.... but im worried it will make them look even smaller yet.

4everkidd, perhaps you misread my original statement? Thanks for the pic, DCoolBeans. I still stand by my opinion. On a tangent, Chevy really pissed me off with those wheels. They took a great new, edgy look, and took a giant dump on it with those wheels. I mean, seriously, it looks like an old Corolla's rims or something.

Looks good. I think the front lip flows with the car really well.

gotta be better than plastic plugs to take it off though. My F came from the dealer with plates so I'm stuck with it until I can figure out how to get rid of the holes without using cheap plastic plugs or paying to repaint the whole damn thing


Quick Reply: Darby's F cleaned and lowered
