Nice work! Which DRL's did you use. Most that I see just look cheap. Those look pretty decent from the pictures. You could do the plastic dip on your current wheels until you can afford the new wheels. I agree that black would make a big difference.

I picked up a quality (White High Power 5-LED DRL Daytime Running Lights Porsche Saab Cayman Boxster), do a search on ebay, you'll see it.

btw, thanks for the tip on PlastiDip, I picked up 4 cans from HomeDepot and will try it on my rims to see if I like the look. Seems to be very easy to apply and easy to peel off if you don't like the results.

cheers

Today, I added PlastiDip and yellow caliper paint. It turned out better than I expected and this thing can be peeled right off. Here are some pics, still have PORSCHE brake decals to put on when the paint has totally cured.

Cheers

Thanks for the info. Post some pics when you are done. Several others on here have tried the plastiDip with good results. Cheap and easy to see if you like it.
