If this was the look you were going for, wouldn't you spec Guards Red which has the orange hue in certain light. Still silver wheels though. Only colours mixed with silver wheels that are not gelling for me personally are white and chalk. Possibly GT Silver but I get the all silver look.

Do do you guys think the headlights on this orange R are black or standard leds? what also different on the gt3t from the r are the additional black scoops on the front nose that the 991.1 didn’t have. I wonder how those will change the look of this car. |

These are definitely LEDs in Black.

Definitely not Platinum Satin.
Those look like the standard 911R Satin Aluminum wheels (optional on the GT3). |

I had a guards red turbo s and I ended up not loving it, it was bright with a slight orange tinge/hue. I’ve seen a lava orange RS several times now at the track. I can see the salmon hue if you think about it and try and see it otherwise I see orange. It’s darker and not as pretty as gulf orange but it works. The darker orange would work/contrast especially good against the bright silver wheels, trim and headlights.

I wonder how those will change the look of this car. A little black trim here and there will be helpful. Even the rs/rsr had some black trim (and black center Fuchs) to break up the chrome/silver theme a bit. And pepita seat inserts to bring the silver/black theme inside, either CXX or after-market, would close the deal. |
I was under the impression that the 911R's silver wheels were the 991.2 GT3 standard wheels in glossy silver finish (which was an option on the 991.1 GT3), not the matte aluminum finish (don't even think that was an option, but I never had the chance to spec an R :) )
A lot of the R's online I've seen had the standard silver wheels with black LEDs, I don't think I saw a single R with the silver (standard) LEDs and silver wheels, maybe it wasn't a configurable option I personally think a Lava Orange Touring Pack will look awesome, and be very unique. I would go with Black touring pack to match the black accents of the .2 car, standard silver wheels, and it's a toss up for me on black or standard silver LEDs, but I'll lean towards the silver LEDs to match the silver wheels (what I ended up with on my GT3 build). I have the black LEDs on my C4 right now and after Archimedes told me that he thinks it looks like eye liner on the car's headlights I can't stop thinking that when I see my car lol. |
CARB GT3 touring's are released!!! Just got word from my SA that my touring is in. I'm heading to see it this afternoon and will post photos later today. I'm excited :roflmao:

Here's my touring before the PDI. First of all, I absolutely love it. I had my doubts about White, after seeing how great the touring looks in dark colors with the Silver trim. It amazes me how much better it looks in person. One very interesting note: the "Porsche" on the rear bumper should be in Silver letters. As you can see, the letters are Black. Everything else is Silver (window trim, exhaust tips, and headlight washer nipples). Not sure what I'm going to do at this point. The dealer cannot do clear bra for over a week, so I'm picking it up tomorrow afternoon and will have it done at an independent shop. More photos after pickup.

Chris sure is a beauty congrats ,
to me the black P lettering doesn't miss as blends nicely with black motor grill , another option would be remove it altogether |
