White 911 with black cookie cutters
I’m thinking about painting black the center of my cookie cutters but I’m not sure if they will look nice on a white car. Do you have any picture that you could share of a white 911 with black-centered cookie cutters?

If they are white now then yes definately paint them. Thats a very outdated look imo

Buy a can of black plasti dip paint. Spray two wheels on one side of the car. It peels off when you are done.

If you do try plasti-dip, don’t get the brakes too hot before you make your decision to peel.
The heat from the rotors can make it a real ***** to peel the paint off afterwards. It seems to bake it on. Ask me how I know... Maybe it’s just the way I autoX ![]()

I think a lot depends on other parts of the car.
Does it have silver window trims, door handles, headlight rings? Then maybe silver wheels type in better. If these are blacked out, then maybe black might work. ![]() ![]() ![]() Note how the black Carrera script manages to tie in the wheels, along with the black rubber bellows than on the other cars. Either way, its always fun changing things up on your car to see what works. A pic of your car, or a model description would help! Maybe someone would be willing to photoshop it for you ![]()

I might have a go with plasti-dip. Seems like an easy low-cost option to test the look.
