Very nice 
... but then i am kinda biased!! lol ... i am looking at getting my calipers powdercoated when i replace the brake pads and am tossing up the idea of Monterey Red or Bright Red colored calipers? Any thoughts ... I kind of like the Monterey Red color (I have the same wheels) ... but i dont think they dont contrast as much as the bright red?
Great detail job!

Yes they are the black Chrome Z06 style wheels.
I started with Aluminum Brightener, sold by NAPA. Have that I used Adams Metal Polish # 1 followed by Adams Metal Polish #2. I did not spend a lot of time on them but I will work some more. I had my C5 suspension looking like chrome almost.
Thanks John see you on Saturday.
If your car is Monterey Red I would go with the same color for the calipers over a bright red. Just my opinion.

Your car looks beautiful. I like the trick you did with the vaccuum. I'm gonna have to steal that. what did you do, vaccuum in opposite directions so some of the fibers stand up and the others lay flat?

That is it. It just makes it look a little more detailed then running the vacuum head in all different directions.
