I don't usually like to do this but....its TEASER time!!!!!

Finally decided I needed a change and went with the look I have always loved.

The centers are matte black, the lips are high gloss black with 1/4 inch Alpine White pin stripe. The hardware is also high gloss, as are the center caps.


Mirrors are a full replacement, I had my body shop spray the top portion of the mirrors to AW. I didn't like the FULL cf theme.

You pulled the trigger on the wheels and they look sick. The mirrors turned out sick too.

The other mirros I had were mirror covers only, they slipped over the OEM covers. I didn't want them, so I sold them. And then after decided I missed the look, but wanted to to the "FULL" replacement covers. They sit more flush on the mirror.

Ya...I did the white for 2 reasons.

1) obviously because the car is white
2) because my calipers are white (same as your thoughts)

Lovin the mirrors but not feelin the stripe on the wheels. I think that may change once they are mounted though. Can't wait to see everything installed with proper pics!

IMO, black wheels are way too dark looking without some contrast in them. You guys will change your mind when you see it.

Look at my boys 997TT with a white pin stripe and tell me that doesn't look good!

I have personally always loved that look! I think the wheels look great and will look just stunning once mounted. (the 997 isn't too shabby either!!) good stuff bro
