What about menstrual red inside?
All Porsche pics show CS white roll bar. I think future buyers might expect it to be like Porsche intended??

Thank you for the photos TrakCar. My RS has the red accents, so that is what is keeping me from white. If it was all white like your 2.0, then white would be the call on the cage. decisions, decisions.....

Laguna - my other thread responded all white. Red looks cool against your red accents. I think Trackcar probably has good pics since he had red gauges against white roll bar.

white.
let red belts and door pulls be the accents.
that is enough red. anything more is too much.
plus, your track wheels won't be red.

check out this little factory number.... (some assembly required)

if you delete all the red accents, then white looks great on an all white car. Trakcar has had great success with his. Looks like a cup car.

Black roll bar looks too commercial for a street car.

Thanks. 4.0 will also do White. On my first 2 white ones the had darker tinting and that makes it a bit more muted then pic above. 4.0 will have dark tint and white bar.

Considered black, but 4.0 came OEM club sport in white and it is a flashy white wheel with decal anyway. A black bar won't mute it and I don't feel like or want to change anything. Just add a few things.

I like no tint but just to hot and bright here...

I would go white, and delete the red accents. They are just too loud for me. If accents are a must, replace them for black accents, the car looks superb like that.
I can post some pics if interested.

Trakcar - a white cage in your new 4.0 is definitely the ticket. Congrats on that beast. Can't wait to see some video of you easily breaking 2.19.

M3EvoBR - That photo with the red does look really, really good. If red, what color harnesses? Thank you!
