I disagree. Leave the ambers in. Currently it has a period look. Trying to tart it up with clear lights won't help.

I disagree with your disagreement... too many colors... blue white amber... I'd make it cleaner... so white lights match the white decal and rims...

got the same overall look with a different color and ambers on my car would throw it off...




it's less a period look and more of a current spyder/new model look...

unless you make the porsche font on the decal larger like the older 911 912's

...then again that's just my opinion.

Very nice looking bro. I have been thinking of taking my porsche chrome wheels and going white like you have done with the white stripe. I first thought black but your WHITE outcome looks dang good. Nice job.

I used to love black wheels, its to common now though. Plus I get a lot of enjoyment out of how much the white bothers people.

I haven't made up my mind on the ambers yet, I'm thinking about going really retro with the headlights and having my machine shop make 356 style metal mesh covers for them. I love the retro race car look, that might be taking it to far though.

Cheers
