The weather held out for me, and I was on the job 1st thing
All fitted and torqued to correct torque, plenty of polish, inside and out.
Im well happy, I think it makes the motor look meaner. What do you guys think?

Looks great.
I once had a 3.2 that had black Fuchs with polished rim which gives the wheel an extra dimension.
 
You still haven't got the centre caps on straight! You are messing with my
OCD! :floor:

The bottom of the shield should point to the tyre valve. Oh, and the locking bolt, if fitted, should be in the hole nearest to the valve. Makes it easy to find in the dark you see. :wink:

They do look very nice BTW! :thumbs: Just needs lowering now. 8)
 
Looks good :thumb:
 
yes very nice, black wheels always make a silver car look a bit moderner in my view
 
Looking really good :grin:

I've just done centre caps so they point correct way 👍
As for lowering it's under Porsche warranty 😔
 
Wheels look even better now they are on. Goes really well with the silver.
 
Sorry not a fan of black. All detail gets lost meaning you can barely see the wheel and it just merges into the tyre.
 
Looks great, have thought of doing similar myself.

I would go for a silver rim if I did, but that's just my opinion to reduce impact of blending with the tyre.

I think a silver car with black wheels looks fab :thumb:

How about rear black badges and discreet door script like the GTS....?

I've got a Black S coming for the rear I'm currently on the fence with the black door decals :?:

Is it the same size badge as the original, as could not find one when searching.

Defo the Carrera S door decals - wheels, badge, decals .... Job done!
