There are gold Porsche crests in the center hup caps on the wheels. You think I overdid it? The thing I love about the p-car and these forums is the fun of modifying these cars, interior and exterior and maintain a unique ride. I still plan to install the Getty GT2 wing and will paint the bumperetts at that time. The gold tips seem to be less suseptable to carbon soiling than my stock stainless tips. There is nothing on them to clean. Will

Yes I did have the Carrera painted gold, not a good match and I will probably go back to stock silver when I put them on the red C4S strip with the GT2 wing. The silver Carrera just doesnt contrast with the AS paint. I don't like black. Will

Nope. I was kinda jokin, kinda not. I obviously didn't pay close enough attention but it was my opinion that there needed to be at least some gold in that area.

Very unique and very cool car though!
