Snake- I really do not care to have my LS looking like a Smokey-n-the-Bandit throw back.

A Black LS with matte black or pewter or NONE at all accents would have been my preference. And hey, I get to write the check and personalize my car the way I want. May just send her to the paint shop to be CORRECTED.

 

So would mine. I would not mind if a little heritage would be integrated on the new Boss.

 

Yeah, I think that post belongs over at a GM forum.

My brain tried to understand that comment and that's what literally happened. Please be more understanding of my current medical condition.

C'mon... white walls? It's like 5-0 watched the arrogant-lead-character-redeems-himself-by-placating-the-self-righteous-misfits-by-patronizing-them-and-buying-from-their-poor-business-ventures-while-still-remaining-condescencing-enough-to-get-the-hot-chick part in Pixar's "Cars" one too many times.

 

It's 5 DOT 0 to you. Cars is one of my favorite movies.

 

Gold trim on a black car just looks so very classy. A black car with gold trim just has to be seen to be appreciated. It may not be as flashy as the current Black LS, but it would be more accepted by those who want their car to stand out a little less.

 

Snake- standing out a "little less" would be an LS with matte black or silver/grey wheels/accents on both color options. Flashy is red or gold trim on an otherwise subtle but very menacing Boss vehicle.

OH PLEASE!
Are you seriously trying to compare HERITAGE of a legendary Ford Boss 429 to that of Burt Reynolds/Sally Field black-n-gold Firebird Trass Am???

Really?

YOU missed the point completely.....

By the way, where are the flashy multi-color accents on the Boss 429?
There are NONE. The car speaks for itself!

 

I did not, you did. If you lack the understanding and design cues' reference of both, the black '70 Boss and black '03 Mach 1, it would be a pointless to explain.

 

Updated PS using the wheels minicobra used in his PS. These wheels look more natural from outdoor light.

 

wow nice job, would love to see them on CO

 

I'll look for a CO photo this evening.

 

I realize this is an old thread, but for what it's worth, the 2012 LS wheels are Race Red, not Orange - as are the accent areas on both the Black and Ingot Silver 2012 302 LS.

I love 'em. Not only do they look terrific on the 302 LS, but they make a great and great-looking set of street wheels for a Red on White GT500.

 

I agree with that. Thanks for that pic Remford.-----Bill

 

Nice! Sweet lookin ride

 

I must say, they sure do look nice.

 

Photocopy guru, can you take these stock OEM rims and change the black of the rim to a gun metal grey like the BBS rim? (but keep the aluminum outer ring) Like to see what that looks like

 

The outer ring is NOT chrome on the street Boss 302 wheels. They are machined aluminum.

 

Get some Plastidip and try. If it doesn't work you can always take it off

 

My PS skills are limited to cut and paste. Which wheels are you referring to? The FR BBS wheels are silver (or black) not gunmetal. I've seen them in person several times. The 2013 LS wheels are sterling gray, it's the same color used on a Mustang.

 

just like to see the oem (non-LS) Boss Black rims changed to grey on a KB Boss....I wonder how that would look like... use the image below

 

Gotcha. Seriously, with your black stripes I think the black wheels look good. I didn't think the black wheels went well with the white stripes so I changed mine the first day I owned the car. The stock high gloss wheels look dirty after a trip around the block where gunmetal won't look as dirty. Here's a photo of mine which aren't quite gunmetal but are close.
