Let's start this story with a hefty dose of honesty: when you get your hands on a Porsche Cayman GT4, do you need to replace the GT division wheels with custom units?
The answer is obviously a big, fat "no". However, when the driver of such a car happens to be the owner of a Vossen Wheels dealer, it's not difficult to understand the shoeing job.

We're talking about the Red GT4 in the piece of footage at the bottom of the page, which now rides on forged aftermarket goodies. The strong contrast between the Glossy Black finish of the wheels and the hue of the sportscar turns the Zuffenhausen machine into a massive attention magnet.

This, of course, is a customization scheme that serves its marketing and personalization purposes while providing the easiest resale scheme possible - you can simply reinstall the factory wheels of the machine when the time comes for the Porsche to trade hands.

The resale aspect shouldn't be taken lightly when it comes to such go-fast demons. This, along with the obvious warranty challenges linked to car customisation is why we haven't seen a deeply-tuned Cayman GT4 so far.

Sure, we've shown you tons of such Caymans that are truly worthy of the eye candy status and yet all these cars stick to the wrap path. And what could be more efficient when one is willing to completely transform the appearance of his go-fast machine?

If handled properly, the second skin job is just as easy to reverse as a set of wheels, but offers a much greater visual potential. And since we mentioned this, we'll take the time to remind you about two of the wildest-looking GT4s we've shown you so far.

Interestingly, both are connected to brands from the alcohol industry. The first is a Porsche showing us the new-age face of the good old Martini livery, while the second simply goes for a Heineken adventure. Because beer.
