Default New wheels and a few decals

Figured I'd share the new look of my car after adding a few decals and a set of Vorsteiner V-FF 101 wheels with Michelin PSS on them. It is definitely less subtle than before, but a red 911 would never be a sleeper. I understand this is not for everyone's taste, posting only as a sample and encouragement (or discouragement) for those who consider doing something like this. Cheers!

I think it looks awesome. I particularly like the matt black engine vents. Wrap? Almost went white with my Porsche logo too. Nice job.

Thanks for the positive remarks, was somewhat unexpected after the 911R lookalike thread earlier this week. I don't want the car to impersonate any other 911, just wanted something white on the red to get this classic look in a more modern interpretation:

Was there today morning to get the wheels mounted and the black emblems. :-)

I also love the black engine Vents, I might buy some black wrap and experiment with this.

Default looking great

Love the wheels---now you should list it as a rare 911R from the factory and ask $475,000----


Seriously--I like what you did and I would be thrilled with the result

poser? Gonna add an M or AMG badge now? Well some of the brethren here on the 991 forum seem to feel that way. -see link below- What a joke...... (Such comments) Your car looks GREAT. Tasteful and unique ...... Well executed. Love it....
I wonder if a mix color wise on the graphics could also look neat. Stripes in white look fantastic on the red (and white Porsche looks great as is also!) but what about the Porsche on the side in black could also be slick- would play off the neat black rear deck lid....

Sir well executed one off 991!
