Thanks for the compliments gents. I still need a few more small tweaks. I need some longer front studs to put some spacers up front and I want to dial in about 1 more degree of negative camber in the rear.

You’re right about the headlight rings. Bring a touch of that inside also? Polished bezel rings could look classy (+ 917 wood shift ****)

I go back and forth. As of now, my thoughts are that they look better with caps in person and better without in pictures. Not sure why... Anyways, I ordered a set of polished BBS caps and hoping they will give me the look I want. They do not fit so I will have to see if I can modify them to fit.
I like that title. ha! Could be "From Midnight to Miami".
I never thought I would be taking the car this direction as I have never been a chrome or shiny fan. I always went for the "race-look". Color-matched or black accents. Maybe it's just me getting older? lol I am digging the polished areas of the car and maybe I will bring some of that inside. I think it is working because it is the last of the classic style 911.

Winner winner chicken dinner!
Each 64 has a unique vibe and speaks to us differently. I went for the RS look in my previous 64, and this one said to me, "this is how I could have looked in '91, I'm a fountain of youth".

From Midnight to Miami.
Mine is part Meissen so I will be "Meissen " my time in during midnight in Miami - Lame I know, but seriously, lets start the Midnight to Miami thread!
You aren't old Greg, just seasoned. I love how the chrome turned out on my car, and it started as a pure black car! Never going back.

I received some Polished BBS center caps yesterday. As of now, I think I am digging the look with the center caps removed, but the center cap adapters installed. I think it still gives that Motorsport look, but maybe slightly more "finished". Thoughts?
