Default Carrera logo or black rock guard on NB 88?

I'm torn as to which to put on - I think it's too naked without something, or at least for now so that's not for discussion!

Which do you prefer, the Carrera logo or the black Rock Guard? I have a narrow body car with factory tail fwiw...

Default Carrera stripe

The Carreras script is absolutely classic. Nothing better than black on white, especially with black-center Fuchs. I never cared for the "shark fin," doesn't look like part of the car.

Definitely the Carrera script for a white car.

Script...

But what is rare on the 74/ 75 Carreras are the cars from factory with the script delete.

Prefer clean lines - no rock guard nor script.

Haha guys I knew this would come up, see my original post that plain wasn't up for debate! ;0. Look how many 911's I've had, never had one with the script just seems fun.. And this car is hot-roddish ;0

I'm going with the script! Thanks for input. They should be in soon, ordered from car-bones!

Script, but I think the script in your photo is about 1-1.5" too high. See this regularly. Looks like someone who wears their pants pulled up above their navel. Should be about .5-1" above that half moon cutout piece and parallel w the bottom of door panel gap.

Haha no high-waters please!

Very good info thank you - I wonder if there's a factory spec to be found.
