Yeah... and I stupidly sold them last fall. I didn't see things progressing like this. I bet they'd look great now! lol... not going to take the $$ hit again however, I'll try something different.

-Coming back from Whitefish, MT after my 3 day 1500 mile journey.



I'll figure it out.

Well, I kicked around the idea a little and a local member contacted me with some 20" Forged 360's for sale. Price was right, location was right... I think the look is right as well. Here's my summer set up, keeping the Ruf Reps for winter. More parts on the way!

rears are 325/25/20. 20x12 and 20x9 rims









What do you guys think?? I was so against 20's... oh well!

Thanks guys... it's nordic gold metallic. Was a optional color for a couple years, I think you can still get the cayman in it. There are a few Cayennes this color as well. (I think it was one of those launch colors, but it's fairly rare since I don't think many people get the extreme oranges, greens, etc etc. I've only seen one other turbo cab this color... and one GT2)

Just going to pick up the rear diffuser to match the side skirts and the outside of the car is done. Next stop exhaust and tune... (although I'm kinda liking my warranty right now)
