Need pics of white Fuchs w/ polished lips & petals
Not sure if we are going to go with a full polish (My first thought and still the favorite) or white with polished petals & lip. What do you guys think? Here is the car...

I agree with Evan. It looks very period correct with the Fuchs you have.
The white might look kinda funky, IMO.

Colored insets almost always look funny, to me. Black is best -- especially with your car's black trim.
I'm not a fan of fully-polished, either. (Jeez, I'm fussy.)

Thanks for all the kind words guys. The more I think about it the white is out. Jack does bring up a good point about the black matching the trim, and that would be a lot less work on my part

Hey, wait a minute. White Fuchs are a factory option. In fact, they were the color in the `87 brochure centerfold and on the factory poster in `89.

LeeH had them on his 84 and I really liked the look on his car and that's kind of where I got the idea. I think on a white 80s car with a tail it fits. With all the chrome on the car I wanted at least polish petals and lips to go with the chrome. After seeing Sergio's picture with the white inset it was not the look I wanted. I'm trying to keep it old school.

When I see the white on white 911, I think Crockett and Tubs aren't far behind
