I'm debating doing this to my Camaro. I have a 1994 Z28 that is white and I just picked up a cheap pair of 16" Zr1's. I have the black and white theme going on my car (black- top, mirrors, headlight buckets, front turning signals, berger panel, tint and white- car, side markers, rear fill in letters) and I was what black rims would look like. But I dont want to do it the normal ways......I want to powdercoat them ALL black (no polished lip).
Would anyone happen to have a picture of a white camaro with all black rims? I've searched but all the white Camaro's i find have a polished lip....
Thanks

Is there a reason why you don't want a polished lip? IMHO, without it, it's almost looks like a steel wheel.

Agreed. It looks awkward when the wheel blends in with the tire.

The basic reason I want to do it is to be different. How hard would it be to powder coat the rims and leave the polished lip?

Pink wheels would be different too.

I think the black with polished lip would look pretty mean. Care of Brent Franker's Site:

Yeah, I know, old thread, but then people bitch about making new threads on old subjects....
Anyways, I currently have the 17" SS 10 spoke wheels painted black (including lip) on my white '93, and I get compliments all the time on how great/mean/badass it looks, from both car people and non alike. At first I didn't think I'd like it, thinking it would look really goofy on a white car, but it ended up growing on me. It's a neat effect with the black roof, enough so that when I pick up a set of 15" wheels for slicks/skinnies later I'm going all black on those too. I'll snap some pictures tomorrow when it's light out.

Black with a polished lip on my 02 Artic White SS. This is the best pic I have.

Also these are the new ZR1's with the bigger lip.
