            boys, gonna need some opinions on colour, currently have a few strong advocates of the oem porsche bronze-y colour, also have a few big fans (myself included) of a nice cream/beige..


            shoot.

                thats my inpiration. except i think the polished lip will be a royal pain in the arse, and i'll be making up for the lack of polished-ness with the other set of wheels...

                although i am thinking polished centre caps with colour coded engraved porsche badge?

                    make sure you get a flex joint installed otherwise the exhaust will crack in no time!

                      • Looking good dude. By the way some one on gum tree has 4 x 100 teledials but only 3 rims. $250 bucks.

                        They will look awesome i nearly went down this road. Just make sure you use plenty of lock tight on the adapter into the hub as i nearly had a bad accident with adapters and 928 polished rims on my old one. Scared the **** out of me.

                        • Where have I been? I thought i would check up on this thread and there was two pages I hadnt read! Love it - looks so clean! Those wheels you should definitely do white/cream.

                          • Don't use locktite. Just proper torque spec or mega tight. If you have the right adapters shouldn't have any problems

                            • Thanks fellas - getting it ready for roady and should be going in for a look over in the next few days... finally got the porsche handles on (makes life a lot easier - the old drivers door handle was an absolute pain) and also changed the oil, plugs, filters etc

                              getting close!
