Mine look like shit -clear coat peeling can be seen from yards away.

Turned out great and a mod I’m still debating.

How many people have given up the Fifty for a ZL1? Any thoughts on the matter? I really wish they made the Fifty package on a ZL1 because that's what I'd get. Been a tough debate with myself lately as I love the car and don't want to get rid of it, but I think I'm being called to the ZL1.

One of my life goals was to place an order for a Camaro brand new exactly the way I want it and my time is running out.

I'm considering have my OEM rims chromed. Have any of you done this? I was told by a local shop it would cost $1,600 to $1,800 and would take 6 to 8 weeks.

That sounds very expensive tbh.

Have you seen their previous work? I know chroming process takes longer vs other colors.

Well you could have had 8 but then lose that pedal on the left.

I have and it does look good. I can't get past the price. I really like the old school look of chrome. It really highlights the detail of the rim.

That would be an option if chrome color that actually looks very close to chrome is available. Black is not an option.
