I decided to plastidip the wheels. Took about 2.5 hours from start to finish. They turned out pretty good ( at night at least ). I love the way it looks. May black out the gt emblems too. Needs a drop, but I'll live with it for now. All these were taken with my phone. I hope to get some better ones Sunday.

I know how you feel, the previous owner put the same hood on mine, but I am starting to like it!
If you take your pictures during the day, they won't be grainy. Are you eventually going to get custom wheels? Regarding the cap and emblems, I wouldn't use plasti-dip. I'd get NEW parts, and paint them with real paint. It'll look a LOT better, and you can always go back to the original parts later if desired.
Some angles the hood looks decent, and some it looks completely out of place. I don't dislike it enough to buy a new one.
As far as the pictures, I know. I had just finished and mounted the wheels. I went out to get a few quick pictures that night with my phone. I plan on getting a new set of rims and tires down the road. But for now these will do. Once I do get the new ones, I will just peel off the dip on these and have my chrome stockers for winter. When I plan on selling the car, I can return it to 100% stock in a few minutes.
