with the camera out today I snagged some pics of the wheels that some of you had asked for, sorry for the delay, but there was head gasket work to be done (so I threw in one pic of the motor apart)

that is just plain sexy.
Especially the little things on the rear such as the silver Porsche decal and turbo decal, really matches and finishes it off. Great job!

Did you use a clearcoat or hardener of any sort?

What is the exact color you used?

Very nice wheels! They finish off a beautiful car!

Is it just my monitor or did you leave the outer rims silver? It appears to really accentuate the wheel size and gives a subtle contrast. A very sweet ride indeed!

On my first black 951 I did it with black centers and I that was my favorite so far, but this red car has come together.
