A Very Vivid Porsche Cayman R

If the new Porsche Cayman R was not already bad enough (in a good way), this one by Vivid Racing takes it to another level. The lime green color on any other car just would not work, but with the addition of these 20 inch mesh style 1piece forged wheel in black with paint match inner pin stripe, this car is hot. To further the look, the roof, hood, and rear decklid have been wrapped in carbon fiber vinyl. Vivid Racing then added a NR Auto TA Style rear wing which gives it a much more aggressive style. Loving it! Check out more Porsche Cayman Parts Here.

i know it´s kind of creative but i am not a fan of the lime green (inner) lip, they make the wheels look smaller than they are.
paint the wheels all black and i am sold.

The CF wrap looks good (it would be nice to see the whole car rather than just a few sections), but I suspect the wheel choice adds un-sprung weight and negatively impacts the performance of the car. Why buy a Cayman R just to perform cosmetic mods?

Destruction of beauty should be a crime, why would you do that to such a good looking car!! Sorry not my cup of tea, wheels do nothing for me and use real carbon fiber or none at all. Using Carbon fiber vinyl is something I would expect to see on a Honda Civic not a Porsche, a Porsche deserves real carbon not the imitation stuff.

Agree, even though I've seen CF vinyl on Lambo too....

I know there are other things that don't look right on this car but I can't get past those hideous wheels.
