Here is a pretty good idea of what the black will look like, I thought about white, orange, silver and grey, in the end I thought it needed to match the wheels. White Fuchs and script would look cool?

ALso, what mag wheel cleaner did you use on the tranny? Was it specifically for magnesuim wheels?

i think a nice granite grey would be a neat contrast...
and that way it's kinda an interpretation of the orig.

SteveM911 · 12-04-2006, 02:10 AM

ok, eric this has been really bothering me...dude, you need to paint that fuel tank! I'm in New Jersey I can swing by with a rattle can..let me know. I can't sleep worrying about this.

ericwitte · 12-19-2006, 06:21 PM

too funny, Ron! Actually, I cleaned it up after I purchased, back to original finish after much lacquer thinner and brain cells...nothing to do about the tire discoloration..the tank looks great in person (lots of dust on it in the pic as well). and you will not see the tire ring when the spare is in place

lateapex911 · 12-20-2006, 07:15 AM

Man, it's looking good! When can I come over and see it? I can be there in 10 minutes, just give me the high sign!

Not sure about the script color...or even if you need it at all. maybe silver?

ericwitte · 12-20-2006, 07:35 AM

Jake,

Thinking of grey, black or white script. Was considering silver, but decided it was too bling against the bright blue. Eventually will finish the fuchs with rsr look, but for now ? Pm me your phone..I will call you next time I am working on her

lateapex911 · 12-20-2006, 09:52 AM

PM on the way..

I have silver on my racecar (Mazdaspped), and it looks OK. Not the chromy type, THAT would be bling...yeccch.

ericwitte · 04-08-2007, 05:16 PM

update v close to completion...a quick peek at rear f/g bumper and mk exhaust, jet hot coated..the clear indicators will have clear bulbs and serve as my reverse lights...figure I can always replace with stock reflectors later, if I come up with a better idea clear coat is all buffed out, wiring done..we should start up next weekend
