I finally got a spare for my car. I had scored a 15x6 fuch last year and cleaned it up and powder coated it. My car is far from stock so just about anything goes on mods. I did not want the carpet set up so I found an upholstery scrap and went for it. I also have a friend that that tricked out my gas cap . I need to do some touch up painting, buff and wax the rest of the trunk so I can check the trunk off my list.I have lots of respect for the stock carpet/spare set up on a clean 914 but again that is not what I haveAttached Image Attached Image

I love the Fuchs spare but does the spare tire tie down extend too high to allow your front board to lay flat. The factory spares are turned over the other way to allow you
to put spare clutch and accelerator cables and anything else deemed necessary in the space provided by turning the spare tire the other way?

Just a question, if you are wanting to show off the Fuchs wheel I get it and I love the gas cap!

I don't use the front board as it serves no purpose for me. I like the spare face up to protect the finish.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Is the gas cap hand painted; curious what the sequence of steps used to achieve such a great design ( promise not to copy it.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )
