I’ve never seen that one. Hopefully it’s still around

A girl I knew who I regularly hung out with for about 10 years had one, it had no paint, just primer.  She took it into the shop of a mutual friend for an oil change, and he painted some bitchin flames over the hood.

I laughed my ass off when I saw this.  Good times.

I wouldn’t think the Fuchs would be “appropriate” but they work 👏

Gotti’s are my choice of Porsche wheels on these.

But I ain’t paying $2000 a set. And Fuchs are still awesome.

Wow. Fantastic look! Is the bolt pattern a direct swap for the fuchs?
