You black out all the chrome on the right side? 3M tape?

Yes just did one side so far to see what I like better, already did the front grille and have a piece for the lower trunk trim both are the 3m black metalic which is a amazingly close look to stock paint. I did the window trim with just standard electrical tape so far because its semi gloss black which seems more correct on that part to me. Not sure where it will end up. Still wondering what the wheels would look like darker grey or black..... need a good photochop job

At speed, the spokes pretty much disappear, making the caliper very visible.  This photo was taken at 60 mph, camera shutter does a freeze-frame of the wheel motion.

Just wanted something a little different--hope it works out....a couple more things I'll be doing to make them more unique, will update this once that's all done, and they're mounted on the Alto Gray car.

2014 ss camaro wheels. Need to roll the quarters and drop it a bit.
275/35/20 rear
245/45/20 front

The front is close to the bumper but going over a large speed bump at 30 mph had no rub.
