Carrera sport 19's on my 2006 car are an "old" style, and typically seen in silver or sometimes black.

Seen some of latest 991s with platinum satin, and had to try it!

Chris at Exel wheels gave good advice, he hadn't done this style in this finish before. We decided not to diamond cut them.

They look stealthy :thumb:






Not on the car for a few months yet, as you may notice they are Winter tyres :grin:

 
Geez, very very nice mate love that colour, adds a nice bit of aggression to the car without going black or anthracite as I did. :thumb: :grin:
 
Geez,
I'm sorry to say mate, but you've make an absolute pigs ear of those wheels. Send me your address and I'll send my turbo wheels down as to not shame yourself driving on those things.
If you could send me your wheels I'll fix them up for you.
When I mean fix...I mean keep and put on mine☺

Huge fan of what you've done. My favourite modern 911 wheel. Job well done
 
Platinum Satin :?:

They look like 'Brake Dust Grey' to me. :grin:

Which was some of the inspiration from brands track day in June 15.
I actually took a close up, when it was coated in brake dust :grin:

 
Temperatures finally dropped , so fitted the winter set

I am so pleased how they look :thumb:

Very nice. Looking forward to seeing them tomorrow. :thumbs:
 
Car's looking great Guy. The side decals go really well with the new wheels too :thumb:
 
Is it possible to provide the paint code, the more I look the more I like.

Edit to say actually I'll contact Chris W it's only fair as it's his work.
