Default This is probably a stupid question but...

Were there 2 different types of aluminum rims that came on the 3rd gen vettes? I see some that I could use as a mirror and some that are kinda dark, there seems to be no in between. And it tends to look like the ones with the dull rims have a black center cap where as the nice polished ones have no black. are they really different or am I just making this all up :(

1976-1979 - black center, duller finish
1980-1982 - unpainted center, high polish
