Shank, black for sure but I would have the lip polished/brushed.

GT-3 Red/Black Wheels

I had a spare set of GT-3 wheels powder coated satin black. The car is Red so I had a red pinstripe around the circumference of the wheel, it makes a bid difference. Check it out under Wheels/Tires (GT-3). It's hard to see the stripe but it works.

I think a set of the Pirelli Rosso tires with the little red emblem on them would make it look cool, too. Overall, I think they need a shiny lip as well.

Shank, I wouldn't change a thing. The car looks good, the wheels look very aggressive, overall it's nice. No need to clutter up the look polishing the lip or anodizing or whatever, the simplicity of the all black and red is beautiful.

It looks great Shank!

What's the deal with the brake air intakes. I think I would like to get a set of those. I will be replacing the plastic thing they prodrude through because I'm upgrading my radar / lazer jamming system and the new transponders are smaller... so I thought I could make the holes bigger and put in a brake duct system.

Do you have a link?

Thanks, Mike

Love the look, but I would still dothe narrow red pinstripe. I've seen it done on a black TT with black wheels, and it was killer.
