Option 1 for me
Keep the R stripes as is
Side decals make them in silver to match the silver trim around windows or silver pinstripe around wheels
Go with base lights (non pdls) the reason i say this is because when you opt for silver trim around windows the rear lights are a little whiter in color, so this way both lights are the same whiteness if that makes sense
Let them do you a sketch with the above. I was thinking of doing the same on my current GT3 for the wheels but can't get myself to change yet from the gold

Option 3 for me, but I would go a tad 'bolder' and have the 'PORSCHE' script on the door in red to match with the brake calipers on the exterior and the sprinkle of red you have in the cabin/interior. In general I don't like R stripes on a GT3T as it screams "R replica" to me.

Option 2 for me is the clear winner and almost identical to what I have coming in the next few weeks.
Mine differs by having the yellow PCCBs, yellow seat belts and black stitching. Also I don’t have the hood strips. My car is arriving without the side decals and I’m going to decide after I’ve seen it if I should have them added. Out of interest for your option 2, are the side decals in a Matt silver or grey? I don’t really know what the color options are for these as my initial build was for a GT silver car with black decals until I changed to the retro look.
I can see why some people prefer silver lights with silver wheels. But for me I love the look of the black LEDs rather than the lighter ones. Think they add a bit of aggression to the front of the car and despite being black they have silver elements inside and of course the whole outside ring is illuminated as driving lights. In my opinion it’s a nice contrast having the iluminated ring against the darker unit.

Tempting me on going winged and option 1... This has been one hell of an internal debate lol

Thanks for your input! I was going to go for PCCB and yellow stitching but I heard the PCCBs squeak quite badly vs steels. Can someone confirm this please?
Option 1 or 2 are the front runners

If the window trim doesnt work in option 1 I can wrap it satin black to match the wheels and stripes.
Emailed them now as per your suggestion. Thanks

I'm a sucker for Satin Black wheels with the polished lip, but I like the suggestion as pointed out above! We will get that in the works for you.
As a side note, thanks for the kind words, it has been a pleasure to bounce ideas back and forth with you, and we are eagerly anticipating the final product.

IMO go with what speaks to you most - I think black with silver wheels is going to be the most popular combo for the touring pack and for a reason, it looks really good
But for some reason the first option with the black wheels and polished lip looked really good, and so I voted for that just for a unique look, it also makes the car look less like just another Carrera vs. something "GT" to me

I like #3 - subtle yet aggressive.

I'd have to say against the chrome trim option #2 seems to work the best. It's not too blacked-out and stands out just enough to look tastefully classic.

Option 3 with black looks great!
