Great look! I did the same black powdercoat on my 09 GTS but I also added a white stripe around the rim to match the body color.

It just depends on the look you are going for. I understand what you are saying but I don't like how Porsche paints their wheels at the factory. I do not like the unpainted lip on the CTT. I really hate the partially painted wheels on the Turbo. Somebody at work has a Cayman with wheels and half the spokes are silver and half are black that just looks horrible. In the end, I was looking to avoid the factory look.

The white or red pinstripe looks good, but it was just not the look I wanted on this particular vehicle. Wheels are probably the thing people disagree about most - which is great because they are really easy to change.

i saw this cayenne on ebay, it looks amazing. Your cayenne looks great with black rims, it needs that contrast

use black pin stripe on the leading edges of the grill - you will satisfy both!

my GTS is black and i put an aluminum grill on & black pin striped the leading edges - looks amazing.
