Hey guys I'd like get your opinion on this.

after seeing the pics on this thread I've decided to get some rings too but I'm not sure should I get them in aluminum or red?

What do ya think?

Cheers,

Sid.

What...tooooooooooooo much?
I know, I know... but it just makes me feel like a young bull at the rodeo when I get in that car.
I'll probably end up changing it at some point but for now it is what it is and it does really make you feel like you're in a race car.

That said, this is part of customizing, sometimes "it seemed a good idea at the time" you just don't know till you try.
OK so I guess the answer would aluminum then?

Thanks for being gentle guys.

Sid.

Sorry, there's just no aspect of this bling that I like, especially the thought of gluing crap to the dash of my Porsche. Dare I say it reminds me of what a teenage Honda Civic driver might do to his car?

It's been a while but I finally got around to putting those gauze rings...

Almost went with red, but since I added even more red elements to the interior I thought I'd go silver.

I wouldn't have put these on if it wasn't for this thread, thanks!

Cheers,

Sid.
