Any pics of a red 911 with polished Fuchs?

I was looking at Jeremy's car here (New Al Reed Polished 16 x 9 and 16 x8) and kind of like the look; I would like to see what it would look like on my red Carrera.

Thanks in advance.

Rich--could you elaborate on your suspension setup? I like the aggressive stance you car has--very nice!

JonT, I'd elaborate if I could, but the car sits just as I purchased it. The front sits a little too high for my taste, but whoever did the set up indexed the front torsion bars at the limit of the adjusters, so I'll have to pull the ends off and re-index them. I do like the rear stance though. From looking at it, I'd have thought it to be too low for a car with street suspension, but it has a nice firm ride and hasn't bottomed out anything yet, so I'll go with it.

Here's one, although I don't remember to which Pelicanite this car belongs. The owner either painted the spokes or left the anodized coating on. I believe that he left the anodized coating on since it has a greenish hue.

Now that someone posted the fully polished with chrome lugs I will be ordering the chrome. Big difference. Here is one more for you.

I owned this '77 from '81 to '96.
Now that I see the pic, I should take it down. No, the car wasn't distorted like that. I took a digital pic of a print.

I can post some pics of mine after the weekend but in the meantime I downloaded this one when I was deciding. Sorry but I can't remember who it is - hope you don't mind!
