Thank you, It is a 911 stone guard. I did try a black 944 stone guard instead of the factory clear but did not like that at all. I think this looks better. I have always liked a white vehicle with strong black features. As far as white rims I like them as well on a white car. I like color matched rims on any lighter or bright colored car like white and for sure speed yellow.

16's, and they are in very nice original condition with new tires. I believe they came off of a 86 911.

Found them on craigslist, the guy I got them from is a long time Porsche guy but not a rennlist member. He told me he once had a 914-6 with factory GT flares. I guess one of about 15 that came to the U.S. Very nice guy and I tried to recruit him to rennlist, hopefully he will sign up.

Hockey sticks on a 944, I would not have thought it would "work", but it does. Nice to see something new, er, I mean, old...Bruce

Good find. I just got these, not nearly in as nice shape as yours and are 15 x 7 and 15 x 8s.

But for swapping my 15" phone dials and $120 I think I did ok.
