Kudos to Peter Lee at Wheel Experts. The wheels are 20" in silver powder coat with Porsche "Turbo" center caps. I was a little aprehensive about doing 20s, but I actually think the ride is better the stock 19s (maybe it's the Pirellis vs. the OEM Bridgestones).

Fabspeed tips in powder coated black. You know you made the right choice when your wife notices and gives you the thumbs up! Also did the "Turbo" logo and air bag surround piece in Slate Grey courtesy of Eric @ BumperPlugs.com. Take a look at the last 3 digits of my license plate...

Wow. Looks great. I have also opted for the P43 but am getting mine in textured black. Better be careful though or the P43 will become the new P40!

Beautiful wheel, beautiful car! Congrats.

Question about the tip please. I am ordering Fabspeed Tip for my Cargraphic Exhaust (review here http://www.rennteam.com/showflat.php...&page=0#416268) myself. Is there any problem with the powder coat of the Fabspeed tip peeling? That is, is power coat going to last with the heat involved here? TIA.
