What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

Since I was doing a brake flush yesterday I decided to clean up the back side of my wheels. Who knew they had such a light color to them.

In 2 weeks it's oil & filter change, spark plugs and tubes.

Yeah they don't seem to put much paint on the inside of the Porsche wheels. I have 2 different sets and they're all like that!

Have a guy working over my CLU. He suggests mine is too far gone to repair. So I guess I'm looking for an M535. I posted in WTB/FS9 Section. But let me know if you got one! Obviously don't want a water damaged one.

I spoke with my wheel guy about this when I had my Carrera Light wheels refurbed. He said that the inner barrels of all silver painted Porsche wheels of our generation are finished with a high strength catalyst coating which is light gray in color. The exterior finish color(s) (arctic silver and seal gray in my case) is (are) never applied to inner wheel barrels from the factory. In fact, he mentioned that Porsche concours judges will dock points if the inner wheel barrels do not have the factory gray coating.
