You think I would make something like that up? I think he did it free hand. It's not even very straight.

C'mon Russ post a pic!

Rosen... shut the hell up.
I started a thread on painting the calipers and another thread on painting the rotor hats. You could probably do both at the same time and save quite a bit of time.

If you spray paint the hats, make sure you cover your car with a drop cloth (a cheap plastic one will do) to protect the car from overspray. It's a B!TCH to get the over spray off. Don't ask me how I know!

Any hi-res pics? I want a new wall-paper...

Errr... no....not at all.

There are some seriously gorgeous cars here but I dig Alan's the most. I hate to be a copy cat but that is definitely the direction I want to go with mine as well.

Here are a couple pics of my race wheels. These are CCW (Complete Custom Wheel) 3-piece classic race wheels. They run about half the price of Fikse, Forgeline, Iforged, etc. The fronts are 18x9.0" with 235/40 MPSC's. The rears are 18x11.0" with 295/30 MPSC's.

CCW does give you a lot for the money. I like the larger diameter on the ForgeLine center sections.

I'm in love with your car!! If and when I pick up my C4S, I want it to look just like yours. Details please.

MTV that was tim's old C4S I think he has had at least 20-30 cars since. Some came and went so fast Tim did not even know he had them... In fact I think he has a new car in the garage this week. Someone should probably let Tim know. I think he has ADD. He sold the car locally and said that he does see it every now and then. It was in deed a very Hot looking C4S! Tim's "Porsche" now is a 993TT if you pick up a car let us know we would love to meet up for lunch & drive sometime.
