GT3 RS Orange Wheels

I'm getting some Forgeline's for the track ZX3's. One thing I'm considering is GT3 RS orange.

Since they'll be track wheels, with track tires, I think it may be cool. For everyday, I think it would be too much.

This is the best I could do on Photoshop (I'm no pro).

Could also go wild with a lower door sticker ala Ken's, but I would just be plain old Cayman S.

I have to decide in a day or so..........thought I would throw it out for comments BEFORE I've got them.

Interesting look.

What kind of bra is that you have? Do you like it? Do you only put it on for track days? If so, does it take a long time?

Speed Lingerie. Love it. But put on only when the weather's warm - it fits like a bra should.

The color is interesting, I'm not yet sold on the color. Probably looks better in person - I have seen them on a GT3 RS in person, but then again, it was a GT3 RS!

I think it's a good idea, It will make your car "stand out" on the track. Red or Powder Blue would also look good

I'm going to do it. I'll post pics in a month when they're on. You only live once. Still will be pretty mild compared to the other racecars there!

Here's the final product. I had them mid April, but didn't put them on since our first DE event was snowed out. Now they're on for the next month.

I'm really happy with how it turned out. Its also posted on Forgeline's site:

I'd use them on the road. They look great in combination with the side banner and the silver paint. Nice combo

Awesome.
You need to get your fog light spurs, the mirror spear (on the under side of the mirror) and maybe the plastic pieces under the fog lights painted orange too. Like the exterior aluminum pieces (except the side intakes would look weird orange).

looks great

+1 for adding some additional orange accents. Looks sweet.
