Another car with black rims. Some will like it, some won't. I had a BMW M6 with Black rims and received a lot of negative comments (one was from the wife). Never again. Personally, I don't like the black rims and think this car would look better with chrome rims but that is JMHO.

You can pull off black rims on a really dark or really light car. On red, it just looks dirty. Also, with the crosshair grill knocked out and the license plate installed, it looks like a baby with one tooth growing out.

i didnt even notice that - good eye Warfang.
black rims do take some getting used to, and you are right gerald, some like it and some dont.
i personally dont like black either - mine are actually a dark charcoal metallic - very nice looking in person.
i didnt want the "bling" of chrome, and just got tired of the original silver that i also see everyday on every minivan, saturn, honda, etc.

I like the fact the "cross hairs" have been taken out, don't know if that actually helps with airflow, but it does look meaner

I don't mind the crosshairs out, but I would want a billet grill or a mesh pattern there to fill in the void... would look a bit like an Aston.

the interior is a bit too "busy" for my tastes.

Too much black on the rims...they need some polished area for contrast, imvho. Too mush red in the interior for my liking.

Yuck. But if you want a car that's spent it's life at the car shows this would be a candidate. All that tasteless crap can be changed back original.

Uhhhhh that is horrible. I know my stock yellow wheels get some negative comments, but atleast they dont look like that. The interior is too red, and why are the seats striped when the car isnt?? The missing crosshairs make the bumper look like part of a bodykit for an import (I guess it goes well w/the import bodykit looking hood) and that front mount tag is as ugly as the rest of the car.

Black rims only look good with a chrome lip.

anyone else notice that this 97 has no fog light covers on it?????? they could have been removed i guess, but i think the cutouts would still be visible in the photos. i have a 97 and think it would look like ass if i removed the covers. not saying the cars without them look bad. but they dont have slits cut into the facia if they weren't originally equipt so that is my reasoning. now maybe they arent visible because the car has a newer model year facia on it?
