 Anyway, do you plan on changing the color of the fastback?

As far as changing the color of the fasty, the answer is yes. I will probably go with black. But i wont be painting it for a while, at least not until after the suspension, brakes & engine are done.

I found the OZ rims the other day. Im not sure if I could get them in the right offset though.
They are freakin' sweet...

The 993 wheels look good but the chrome looks a little too bling bling for me, but that is just me.

doh. sorry, still thinking bug with those offsets. you could always trim and flare the fenders.
OZ brought out a few new rims this year, but expect $$. i like the 993 rim idea. i agree with dave on the bling factor for colored cars (generality here, i have seem them look great too, just depends on the car), but for black and white they work well. i always wanted to see some dished 2.0l's also. i saw some company that dishes fuch's somewhere. surely they can do other rims as well.

I think the chrome 993 wheels are a little to CAL-LOOK in my opinion.
The same way that fuchs are GL until you fully polish them them they end up on a cal-look car. Just my opinion. Don't mean to step on anybodys toes if you have chrome wheels, they're just not my cup of tea.

Ive always like Chrome rims especially on Black Cars. Plus if the car has chrome bumpers it works even more so to me.
As far as it looking a little cal look, It dont really matter to me cause the rest of the car will be German Look where it counts (Brakes, Suspension, Engine, Tranny)

Heres my old GL with polished fuch's. I can see your point on chrome wheels but i think they are one of the few styles of wheel that you can get away with being fully polished And mine was built before there were a lot of affordable big alloys on the market, finished it in 96 and sold it in 97
