They look great. They'd be awesome on a Ocean Blue Metallic car

Thanks, I was unsure at first. This is the most drastic thing I have ever done with a car, my most bold color choice has been anthracite. I think it contrasts with the blue and Savanah interior really well, I am going to post more pics tomorrow when I can get it out of the garage!
It's a powder called goldtastic with a clear finish and I put opti-coat pro+ on them as well.

I actually thought about doing my winter wheels (twists) Gold, but I have a silver (Porsche) side stripe - so I think they'll clash...
They're black now, and kind of beat up so I'll probably strip and re-paint them car color (OBM) for next season...I think they'll look really nice.

I hear you. Now I am considering what to do with my calipers, they are bubbling, I feel like red is always a classic caliper color but then I have too many colors going on. Might just buy a set, have them powder coated and rebuilt and then replace and sell the old calipers.

Yeah, I read Ahsai's write up. It looks pretty good but I'd need to buy that vacuum apparatus for $135 and I might never use it again. I want to see what an indy will charge for it and go from there. This may be one of those times where it would be more effective to just have it done.

I took the front bumper & air scoops off, cleaned out the condenser and radiator & replace the horns. Sadly the new horns didn’t solve the problem, When I put the fuse back in, they just blast non stop. The previous owner said he fixed the bushings on the steering wheel.

The PO told me he'd already fixed the bushings so I thought it might be the horns themselves. When I got the wheel off, I saw a bunch of red goo in the bushings that was supposed to be the "fix". I was going to try the O-ring fix but the goo wouldn't allow that. So I ended up spending $100 on the new bracket. Horn works!

I had Sally haul some lumber to build some stuff for the wife and kids. I got a lot of strange looks but I have really come to appreciate how practical these cars are. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not quite my wife’s Honda Odyssey but it goes a lot faster!

I have a coupe but i filled the front passenger footwell as well. Failed to take a photo. Yesterday was 1 year since I first drove & bought my first Porsche. 03 Semi garage queen with 21,700. Almost exactly 12,500 non dd miles later it is still as fun as day 1.
Stay safe.
