firstone Posted 8August, 2015 Report Share Posted 8August, 2015 Centre caps are available online, cheap. There are colour options.Some are alloy, some say they are and are only plastic. Check your size to the mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrera28 Posted 8August, 2015 Report Share Posted 8August, 2015 Mike,My humble opinion, the Charcoal looks ok, but the Bronze is much better.I agree with Terry the original bronze looks brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike D'Silva Posted 1September, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 1September, 2015 ok.. i just got the original D90 rims sprayed.. I went with 0B5 which is meant to be the Porsche Platinum colour for the GT3 rims.. but they did a gloss finish, not satin...I don't have tyres yet, but wanted to get opinions from the masses.

Claywong Posted 1September, 2015 Report Share Posted 1September, 2015 I think red and silver is very classic which I like, but to spice it up, I would certainly go bronze. Your new colour is very nice, I can't wait to see it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike D'Silva Posted 4September, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 4September, 2015 hmmm.. quite a few suggestions for lower.. but I really dont want to go any lower than it is.. I have H&R purple springs and Bilstein HD all round.. My other set of cup 1 in the charcoal powder coat, have been sent off for the same colour treatment as these D90.. Took it for a short drive up MtGravatt lookout and have to admit, it felt really nice to drive. No where near as "choppy" as with the larger rims and lower profile tyres.. perhaps I have become too old and boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozvino Posted 4September, 2015 Report Share Posted 4September, 2015 That looks fantastic Mike. I would have said stay with silver until I saw that colour. Fantastic looking carDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic looking carDavethanks Dave. Appreciate the comment. are those the right profile tyres? shouldn't have to go lower to get rid of that wheel gap?Factory specs for tyres.
