Got my GS back with those Black Chromies

This PVD process, and the black chrome, yields stunning results. They would be great on any color car in my view. I found the SD Motoring site and read about the process. I want some. Maybe those guys should start a wheel exchange service. In the meantime I will see if anyone around Houston offers the PVD process for wheels.

i really like the look of these wheels. I am looking to put new wheels on my 07 Lemans Blue. thinking these would look awsome. but I am confused about these wheels. I did search for Black Chromed GS corvette wheels. and came up with many options for these. Is there something different that I am missing about the wheels shown here compared to ones for sale at say these. http://www.corvettemods.com/Corvette...ls_p_5864.html

I'm not sure what actual company did mine, but they were done through whomever does it for West Coast Corvette. I (my dealer in Vegas) did a core exhange with them as i ordered the car with the painted silver as well.
I am deployed until August,but i think i am going to try and get to the 'Mojave Mile' race @ the Mojave Airport in October with the Vegas Vettes Club.
My carbon parts list is not even close to eing complete by the way

Seems to be the same wheel at a descent price and again you will have to get different center caps. They can't do the plastic caps because they will melt in the oven. So u can use centinnel or 60th like I used and they match up nice. I have not found anyone who has black chrome center caps.
Hopefully we will get a chance to meet up in the fall. That will be fun
Do a 'Blue Valkyrie' search here on the forum to see the full gamut & the 'why' if your interested.

Ask and you shall receive! Call WCC to find out who does their stuff. I am very happy w/how my centers turned out. So much so, that I am having my Grand Sport fender badges done in the same finish (which ISSSS taking a LOT longer btw)
