Thanks Shawn last time I checked the different aero makers it was only available for 981. RSNV just released their 981 kit and 718 to follow soon. Options are coming!

Since Gentian is a beautiful but still rather subtle color for a GT model, I am toying with the idea of applying decals to the car. I do not want to entirely lose the subtle character, so my idea is a silver GT4 side decal, silver-colored GT4 letters at the air ducts and silver 4.0 lettering at the wing end plates.

I tried to visualize it on my actual car using a very sophisticated program called Paint

Yeah or Nay?

Frankly I think it's a bit over, but taste is like butt, everyone has a different one!
Most important is what YOU think. Plus if you end up selling the car and the next person doesn't like, they can take the decal off.

Everyone's tastes are different, but I usually lean more towards debadging and removing decals than applying extra ones. If it were me at the very most I'd entertain the idea of doing a door/fender PORSCHE script stripe ala Cayman R. I'd match it to the color of your wheels. So if you have the silver wheels (platinum?) then go for a decal in that same color or if you have the greyish standard wheel then color match to that.

Congrats...and what do you mean "hopefully not too many?" We need pictures. Pictures are always good. Share away.

Seeing all this ADM madness and supply issues, I’m so glad I didn’t listen to my wife and jumped on an allocation when a dealer contacted me about 18 months ago. An allocation for a Spyder for a small fish like me would’ve been difficult in normal times. Just happy to be able to drive this gorgeous work of art and machine, and tell the wife it hasn’t lost any value since purchased. Also got a $500 store gift card for gear.
