Cool

OK, I'm gonna stand with you on this one... gulp.

My personal taste opinion is that you should select one of the vendors on this site to provide you with =====CARRERA===== side stripes in that same color. Then the wheels are not just floating out there in black space when your eye catches them.

Please tell us that you just Photo Chopped these pictures.

If not, you'll need to add some green somewhere else as others have said.

I agree with Ed here. green wheels for everyday use is a bit over the top but on the track id label them unique. Add some matching magnetics or decals and u will stand out from the crowd on track days. The original color with yellow stripe complimented the yellow calipers. I always dig yellow calipers on a black car.

Agreed. You should either go further with the green, or go back to silver. Do what YOU want.

I agree that it needs more green, side stripes and mirrors would complete it imo.
