I too have those tail lights, but they would look much better if you changed out the amber bulbs in them to the chrome/silver ones. They still blink amber, so they will keep your tail lights legal. I like your rims, but I would re-do the red pin stripping on them. It looks crooked in some places or the heat from the rims is making them slide off, out of place. By the way, the chrome/silver tail light bulbs can be found on e-bay also. Make sure you get some for the front side marker/blinkers too. But your car looks great!

I was just looking at your rear tires/rims again and noticed the tire ratation is going backwards. Meaning you need to flipe your rear wheels around to the opposite sides. The treads on those tires like many are "directionals". Not sure about your front tires because I can't read them. Easy fix.

Thx for the good compliments, and as for the others, I wasnt sure if I was going to stay with the stock rims, so I never changed tires. I'm not sure what tires I want, and I only drive the car about once a week, when I get free time from work,kids, and house stuff. Good eye. I must have switched them after I did the rims.

Looks good!! I'm having my wheels powder coated flat black sometime next month. Did you buy the pinstriping stuff from an auto parts store? I think I'm going to have a sign shop match the stripe with the color of my car and I'm going the entire width of the lip. How did you keep the PORSCHE logo on the calipers? buy new decals? stencil kit?
You need black lug nuts.
