I would do new wheels before doing new paint. The paint already looks good.

the paint does not look good! The only reasons it looks decent is because I had JakeF ZAINO it the day before and it's a relatively low resolution picture. The front bumper is scratched and cracked, the hood has small scratches and dents, both front fenders have dents, all 4 doors have dents (some past the paint), the roof is chipped from rocks, both rear quarter panels have major damage, and even the rear bumper is scratched
So most of the body needs to be repainted anyway, I just figure it would be a good time to do something a little different.

And I happen to like Weld Draglites. I'm considering selling the SS rims to get 17" draglite XPs though.

I know that But since it needs so much bodywork, I might as well do something different with the paint

Just wondering, is that a corvette emblem on the side of your car?

yup, from the 97-04 Corvette.

It's common to put "crossed flags" emblems on the front fenders, but I wanted Vette flags. I don't care for the LT1 Vette emblems though.

I'll probably put C6 emblems on as soon as they are available
