What do ya think....color accent change....
 

Got bored and changed out the blue accented wheels with some full faced red Fuchs.

Now should I change out the Carrera stripe or leave it as is....OR loose it all together?

Original wheels......

For comparison.

...with that stripe, I like the "original" wheels better.

I think you need a negative "porsche" script rather than the carrera.

I like the red wheels. I know you did not ask our opinion on this but have you tried a "duck" tail? May look good with the red wheels and the total "rs" look. Just my opinion.

Red "Porsche" text, positive or negative.

The red and blue combination don't do it for me.
If I were you (and you're glad I'm not) I'd lose one or the other.

if you put a big 'merikun flag on the hood, the red and blue works. Or maybe a Firebird. Hmm....

Agreed, use either the red "Porsche" or "Carerra" script with those rims.

Those red wheels look hot.

very patriotic........

car would look good in a parade

(too many colors)

Paint centercaps and/or lugnuts red to match wheels...
Red stripe, or darker 'flag' blue for patriotic look.

Prefer the red wheels,maybe try red script (are they expensive?) otherwise lose the script.

Hey, I know a place you can get scripts in different colors!

Different colored Side Scripts...to me are CHEAP...%^B

I have a duck tail....it's sitting in the garage....I just changed it out for the 3.6 style one. It will go back on soon when I get bored again.

Once again, I like the red wheels. Go by what you like. If everyone had a car that looked exactly like Jack's his would be the norm. Make your own statement. How many people would vote for standard black wheels with factory finish. I bet most. Seems to be a trend thing. In the same lines with getting rid of the factory tail. A trend. The day will come when every one will be buying those tails back.
I am now off my soap box.
Jack O. I just used your car as an example. Great car!

Red carrera stripe. Duck tail. I find that the 3.8 tail makes the car looked too much for the street. My 2 cents since you asked.

Yeah - I know you do - I've sent a couple people your way... I would try it with the red stripes and lose the 3.8 tail - looks like rice.

red stripes and (duck tail)

Mikey,

You get bored every few minutes so put the ducktail back on!

Only thing is that with the blue stripes you do not stand out so much. With red wheels and red sticker on the car it would be like waving a flag at the cops or CHIPs and we all know that you always drive the speed limit... :)

OK...played with different designs and sizes.....how about NOW????

Paint the Fuchs black. Lose the tail, the rollbar, the muffler and the stripe. Change the rear taillights back to stock.

OH..that helps a lot.....and while I'm at it...remove the LSD, the 3.6 engine, go back to 15x6 and 7 inch Fuchs, loose the Recaro seats, the bigger t-bars, adjustable Konis....etc, etc....

Much better, but the stripe looks too skinny and I'm not sure about the RS.

Just plain ole Carrera or Porsche might be better IMO.
I vote for either a stock carrera tail (1st choice) or duck tail.
Course iffn I wasn't sober my opinion might be different.

HMMM, went with the skinny stripe to get away from the fat stripe.....I guess "I" could do like Carrera SC or sumthin like dat.....dunno...not a lot of hot rodded cabs....except for Tyson's "Scruffy".....

I just wanna confuse the local cops a bit.....

I like that better

You have horrible taste and all of your stuff looks awful. You're probably a really fun guy though.

WOW! Tell him what you really think.

That car's got enough "junk in the trunk" that you can pull off whatever look you like. That new side-script is pretty cool but "PORSCHE" still has my vote.

Jay

Yeah....I figure the next side script will just say "RICE DICKHEAD"....

I personally liked the ducktail better, but that RS wing is growing on me. It suits the low front end pretty well.

Like you said, not a lot of hot-rod cabs around.

If you keep the big wing, then try other styles of script, but if you go back to the duck, I'd try standard red "Carrera" script. Should look great.

That looks good! Still like the red rims though. What about a black Carrera sticker. I would love to drive that car with that engine. Fun, fun, hall @ss, and have fun.

Mike, I like the Red wheels and red script you put on there, however I do think the script is a little on the skinny side and a little too high up on the door. bring it down to about an inch above the door sill and it would look really nice. just my opinion.

Hey Rice Dickhead for President!

I was trying to keep the script line,,,,in line with the bumpers...that's why I went that high. That's the beauty of experimentation....you can play with it.....

Once in band camp....I pulled a ten pound booger outta mah nose....mah freakin' head collapsed.....thank God for reverse osmosis....

:rolleyes:

can you put bunny ears on the roll bar?

Photo shop it....fresh out.....

but you're going to get another pair before Autofest, right? It just wouldn't be the same without them...

Bring a set....it will be a club thing,,,,,
