Wheels painted to match colour of car?

I PM'd a couple of you guys on this , but here is the spec . The car is GT Silver with Guards Red wheels , script on the caps in GR , upper part of mirrors in GR , script on engine lid in GR and Porsche logo on top surface of wing in GR . Strangely , they would not paint the wing tips so I'm buying a second set and painting them myself . Inside - black stitching , GR seat belts and door pulls and took the fire extinguisher as well . The car is a basic ''Mooty '' spec - no radio , no chrono , no lift and standard headlights . Steel brakes .

Love the black inside, mooty car best RS interior on the planet.

Well done.

Thanks Peter - would have loved PTS , but I had this as my default color combo if I couldn't get it . Short of that very happy I got to spec it the way I wanted it .

That's going to be hot!!!!
I was THIS close to doing red wheels/accents on my GT Silver GT3.

What made you have Porsche do all that custom painting at such a premium vs having it done locally like you'll do with the wing end caps?

Either way....I'm excited to see LOTS of pics!!!!

Very happy for you and to read about these CXX options.

My gt2rs will be a European clubsport so still waiting to hear on some other CXX options. Anyone in Europe that has been approved CXX painted roll bar?

I tried hard for the painted roll bar, but at least for me it was a strong no-no from my dealer in Finland and from Germany as well. My is being done aftermarket as we speak.

Ok, please post a picture when done.

Aftermarket is always good but a few things would be fun to get from the factory.

I think they build extra time in the estimate just in case of weather or port delays. I agree 6-8 days is more realistic.

Either way.... IT'S ON A BOAT!
