are these the honeycombs? and is your ride lifted at all? i can see the front is jacked up in the photos but the back end is definitely sitting higher than stock too. i say clean off the rest of the trim glue and flat black the whole damn thing to match the rear corner!

That is not "honey comb", those are alloy style wire wheel. There was once a Pontiac that had honey comb wheels, and those are not them (they were real ugly).

I love the alloy style wire wheels like you have there. They look best I think when the spokes are painted gold, or a combination of black and gold. I would not go all black, you can not see the detail. White is better than all black.
