Suggestion
Whatever makes you happy but those skirts are from the pre facelift era and I think it might be the case that they have been replaced incorrectly at one point.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Marc, the sport design wheels look great on your silver car. Nice job.
I'm not too sure about the green lips on the wheels. I don't think green and silver match, unless you have the ever popular nephrite green interior.
Maybe you could paint the lugs and rotor hats green to match.
Listen you lug nut hatin bastards! I will get around to it!
Hard to find quality car time with a kid, house.. work... anyways, can I use wurth silver wheel paint on them??
Best OEM Rim for the 996!!!
Is it me though or does that lip not only not look that hot in green but also seems to be a terrible paint job? Could be the pictures but it looks way off to me.
Thank god!
I didnt want to be a jerk but I was thinking that green lip was about the worst and uglyist thing you could have done.
Must mean you lip has some serious shine!
FYI: I may be a little bias becuase I have the same rims.
I debated getting 19" aftermarket wheels but I decided against. Ill take hot OEM over aftermarket anyday (well except when considering performance improvement). Plus 18's will perform better than 19's.
Your nuts look good.... er, wait.... that didn't come out right!!!!! Let me try that again.... good job painting your nuts, I couldn't have painted them better myself.... awe, crap.... I did it again. Hell, you know what I meant!!!
OK, now about those "top hats".....!!
Sorry to say but I think the mods combo on the car looks weird being a -02 with the facelift headlights, sporting Mk.1 aerokit side skirts and Sport Design rims (pre facelift 996 option).
Ciao,
J.
All I can tell you is the side skirts came on the car from the Porsche factory, they are option X76 and listed on my option sticker.
As far as the wheels the 2002 Order guide specifies option XRL 18" Sport Design Wheels.
So take it up with Porsche AG
What might look "funky" is if I do a GT3 bumper with those skirts.
Whatever makes you happy but those skirts are from the pre facelift era and I think it might be the case that they have been replaced incorrectly at one point. The rims also scream pre facelift 996.
But as I said, as long as you are happy.
Ciao,
J.
