Oh come come.. you're being too hard on yourself.

Look at the green leaves in the processed pic, they look like they've being spray painted!
You're absolutely right - that one was pulled straight from my instagram stream, so it's very over-processed. Looks good though :-)

However, the earlier picture isn't representative of Guards Red either, because it's far more vibrant than that.

The pic below is raw with no contrast or colour adjustments, and it's a pretty fair approximation of the real colour on a slightly overcast day.

I thought the black wheels came with matching black wheel bolts...mine are anyway...
They probably do, but I had my wheels painted after production, since I wanted the entire wheel black, inside and out. I never liked the silver rim that Porsche leaves on its black wheels, not to mention the fact that they leave the inside silver too. You'd think they'd do the whole wheel for over £1,000!

So I ended up with the standard, quite literally horrendous Porsche wheel bolts. Bought a set of titanium bolts from Tikore in the US and they're absolutely beautiful.
