Default 1977 Side Decals

Hey all, I have an incoming '77 and I'd like to add "PORSCHE" side decals.

Does anyone here have a recommendation on where to source / purchase?

Thx!

There is a guy at Pelican, goes by the username Joe Bob. Will make any color you need. Folks seem pretty happy with his work: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...cs-anyone.html

lol, don't add decals or don't use joe bob? the car is already a bit of an "outlaw" and vinyl is obviously easily removable. I'm generally a purist but this one doesn't give me too much heartburn!

im not a big fan of decals .. more of a subdued much ..

one guy in our local group has an SC that had a 3.2 dropped in it before he bought it , so he put huge Carrera decals down the side and took the SC deal of the rear lid ... tends to induce a lot of eye rolling locally.

I had a local automotive tint/decal shop create and install mine about 10 years ago.

I say go for it, you can always remove them if you change your mind.

Looks awesome. I ordered some from Renndecal....matte black "Porsche" 3 stripe set to go on my Albert Blue car. Should be nice and subtle. Can pull em if I'm getting eye rolls
