If I painted the wheels:

I miss my black & silver color scheme and Im bored with my car. This is a relativly cheap almost free and I would try my best to make it look good! This is just a photoshop. What do you think?

Maybe it would look better if it was glossy instead of flat?

keep it real. I think the silver salad shooters look pretty good for what they are.

salad shooters just dont look good in black, or any color for that matter other than silver. if it was the 98-99 style 5 spokes, then id say black.

He already has black ZR1 rims, but they are only for spring/summer/fall. Stock salad shooters are for the winter.

Alex - I kinda like the sleeper look that the black salad shooters give. I say do them in a few coats of flat black, and then one light coat semi-gloss on top of it so they aren't completely dull.

keep it real, you'll be putting the vette wheels back on soon enough 8-) Plus, if you don't prep properly that paint will peel and it will look like absolute **** and getting the remaining paint off will be a major pain in the ass.
