Been wondering for sometime about changing the colour of either the wheels and/or the body.
Daz has worked his magic & come up with these. Many thanks for this.....
Would prefer a more orange orange if you understand.

Love the orange 8)

You're right though, it could be a bit deeper

I think the GT3RS look would suit, orange with black trim and supercharged flashed across the lower panels.

We're getting there. After scraping off the orange from the body to put on the wheels the body looks a bit pale. Definitely needs more orange

If you go orange and black, I reckon that you should go all-out and match the Porsche GT3 orange, put some vinyl text along the sides, etc. Could look great, like the Viper Green GT3 lookalike Boxster that was at TIPEC ’08.

same here, if you're going orange got to be bolder so GT3 orange has to be the one, and sean is right with the supercharged decal along the side as per GT3, but keep the wheels black :wink:

Sorry about the dodgy orange!
The boss kept coming into my office while I was doing it :lol:

I'm keeping mine white with red/polished split rims and red carrera decals down the sides.
A guy on ebay has resized them for me from a '73 911RS so they fit the 944.
Just need chance to get them on the car.

Daz.

Looks pretty good in Orange. 8) But don't splash supercharged everywhere. More fun without any badge on it!
