Those Targas are alway in LAUNCH position!!

There we go.

Agree there needs to be some contrast via either black accents or the traditional "bare" metal finish on the outer rim.

Nonetheless I dig the copper color for wheel color in general. It's a nice change from the overdone gold

I saw that episode. Their builds are so nice it's a crime to drive them, which is a crime in and of itself since one of the biggest joys of cars is driving them!

i like it. Probably would have left the centers and polished the lips myself.

I like it. Agree we need more brassy. Not sure if I would do 100% I always like a polished rim (this can sound bad...)

Totally outlaw, I love it, play with the center caps, with, without, black, polished, but i like the way it is. Dare to be different.

I think it looks great as is in your car

I like it. Adding some black also looks good but either way looks good.

garrett490 I think I'm gonna mooch your style. I've been wanting to do something like the green car I posted but a) the masking looks too hard and I'm lazy and b) the darker bronze is growing on me.

Interesting. I really like them on a dark, muted-color car. I was contemplating something similar for my black coupe, but I had those Group 4 Campagnolos in mind (though I prefer the darker bronze to the gold in the image below).

Thinking of antique gold for my Linea Corsa Fuchers

Heres mine in a copper/dark bronze type colour.Going on a Chiffon 3.6. Nearly ready!.

I made up some bronze wheels for my Schwartz Metallic and love them. Have a look. Just bought 8" for the rear so the 6's will be coming up for sale soon if anyone interested.

Another shot, a little closer, mounted. Like OP, added the ruf bumper after pulling the rockers - lines just flow nicer.

Ok, now you guys have convinced me to paint the petals and lips and leave some black. Damn you.
