Happy to be an inspiration! ;)
Thanks :roll:

I saw the blue 911 below recently at Beaulieu. I was blown away by the contrast of the orange wheels with the light blue bodywork.

It has inspired me to consider getting my existing 20” Carrera S wheels painted in a more colourful hue!

Am contemplating something like the purple below.

I know it would make a statement, draw attention and split the crowd. 😬

Have I been out in the sun too long. ;)
Sanity has been restored! Taking advice from wiser heads than mine, I have shelved this 'colourful' idea. ;)

I was a bit bemused by the whole thing but thought "each to their own". Wise decision methinks.

I don't think you should give up on the change of colour WingCo - try this, its reversible..https://axleaddict.com/auto-repair/How- ... our-wheels ;)

In all seriousness, I think I've seen it used on winter wheels to protect the surface then remove in the spring. :D

Thanks, Ferdie.

Funnily enough, at least a couple of Rennlisters suggested the same thing! :)

Cheers,
