I have to say, it's not a bad look.

I do like your thinking. And that's what I'll likely end up doing. Fun to play around with it, though. It's one of those things that could look great, or just weird.

Don't they have the option where you can also make the side view mirrors partially black?

A tint would be clean and complete the package. I'm a fan of the tinted tails and black xenons. My ambers and turn signals are black too!

That looks great, but I would do the lower mirror trim black also. I have thought the side skirts would look great painted in gloss black along with the lower rear apron around the exhaust.

Love the silver over black/bordeaux. I was >this close< to choosing that one myself.

Where'd you get the tinted ambers?

I wish I could tell you my dude. My ride came that way. Do you know if there was a factory option for tinted ambers for 2014 (2013.5) 991.1s?

Love it. There's a YouTube video out there of a guy taking delivery of a .2 C2 with this interior, but I think the paint was Agate. That looked awesome too.

^^^ I really like those wheels, but I decided against them because of the machined lip. I wanted a blacked out wheel with a satin finish. Those came in a close second...

Dont know, only had my car for a week now. I have the tinted taillights which are cool, tinted side markers would be icing.
