I'm thinking about a wheel refurb. Getting all tangled up thinking about colour options. I started thinking grey but now flirting back to a burgundy redish colour to match the seats. Or maybe something sinple like gold. I think grey is the safe option. But how can a 1998 Porsche ever be a safe option?Gentlemen
I have made a decision
Well sort of
I am going for Aurum Gold
It's a fairly modern colour so most of the google images show it on massive wheels on modern pork. The only pic I managed to find of a 996 era car is shown below but I would say it does not work too well on a yellow car. So lets see how they turn out.
I do now have another problem with centre caps as my powder coating wheel guy suggested I get the centre caps painted elsewhere. He is going to order 1 litre of paint and then give me the left overs. It is more expensive than average paint which does not surprise me. Surely it would be simple enough to get some little plastic centre caps made up in this colour. I have been listening to the back lash from everyone here about not having centre caps on my wheels and it really upsets some people.
