Anyone seen two-tone Turbo Twist's like this?

Where the insets are a different colour, kind of like the 997TT wheels.

Thinking of redoing the wheels to colour match the car (white), and figured I have the opportunity to try something different... Curious to see if anyone's seen something like this before, and how they look in real life.

Also did one in red (match the cailipers?) for ****s and giggles...

Not sure I have seen that before. I like it! Maybe I'll clean up my old track rims! :-)

Cool idea. You can bring some of the color into the cap too. Like the turbo script.

Looks good although I would only do a darker color. Black or steel gray; should contrast nicely with red calipers.

I've never seen that done before, but I think it would look great.

Do it with plastidip, then you can peel it off if you don't like it.

I would have to see it on the car but it reminds me of a MkV VW wheel.

Def looks like it belongs on a GTI.

Haha. Thats exactly what I thought.

Did it a while ago with plastic dip. Makes the wheels look 2" bigger

I did that to my Vette wheels some years ago. I think it looks great. Thought about it for my track twists. This may make me go out and just do it :)

I agree very GTI or 80s Vette look but to each his own.
