I like it Neil,I'm still kinda tripping on your fenderwell trim and how it looks with your wheels.
I've never seen too many guys run them that way.I like your lugnuts too...

Thanks, I specifically went with the polished hoops so it would look good with the X33 trim and bumpers. The lugnuts are basic, non-chrome plated, open-ended ones from Summit Racing.

Stock wheel wells with no lip rolling. This was very important to me given the car is an original Z28. Frank at Prodigy and Forgeline went the extra mile for me and actually built the rear wheels with a different offset for each side (!) to account for the fact that my diff was slightly off-center.
