Usually we centered them on the horn grill... since there was a hole there anyway. Position looks pretty good!

Looking very good, Fabs! Good to see the car being fixed in such a short time.
The Lucas indicators are looking "right" where they are positioned. I wouldnīt care about where others are having theirīs.
Iīm looking forward to see the car on the Torkers!!! Cool

I wish they made those torkers in Porsche pattern. Those things look sweet. Going to give your car a more aggressive look.

no the torker is only the repro of the 5x205 torq trust i never seen a torquer in 5x130 ,  and the problem with the porsches drums that the spokes touch the drums and i've a 2cm or 3 cm  space between the wheels and drums
