Post Need Porsche Sticker

Car just came back from paint shop...and since I was hit on the back side driver's side, the side portion of the sticker is gone. The painter left the word PORSCHE there as well as the right side sticker...but I have no left side!
Does anyone have an extra left side sticker (driver side)? Please let me know...and if this doesn't make sense, I'll take a picture.
Thank you,
Mike

I understand. You'll probably end up having to purchase the entire sticker, and cut off what you need. (Or just remove the entire thing - I think Tabor removed his, and it looks good).

I gotta get some better pics up...

Personally...I'm not really sure which way I like more and wouldn't remove it if it was there and wouldn't add it if it wasn't.

The thing is, if I remove it, it will ruin the paint under...
What if I just remove the right side, and keep only the word Porsche in the middle?
Lame?

Not lame at all. If you don't think it's lame then it's not.

I recently had the back end of my car repainted, and I decided not to replace the Porsche sticker. In my opinion, I think it looks way better without the sticker. I always thought that sticker was a bit too '80's.

I think it looks good without the sticker. I have the illuminated reflector with PORSCHE script on the rear (not the cheap sticker look, the letters stick out like the "944" badge). The reflector really does not do much for me (I disconnected it, its hideous while illuminated). I'm thinking of removing it and repairing the holes, but then again, it looks ok with a turbo valence, which I plan on installing. But my problem is that it says Porsche 3 times on the rear, once on the deck wing, once on the reflector, and once on the sticker, so I think my sticker should go bye bye.

whoa, I should go to bed; I'm f-ing tired

Hey Ian, I'm surprised I havent seen you scootin around Vancouver. The other day I was pacing (not racing) a red turbo S, and I always see these two red turbos in my area and a nosty silver "done up" turbo. I bet youd see me though, my car stick out more than a cab

You know what, I'm pretty new to the 944 scene. I rarely see any 951's around Vancouver, and I don't know any other owners. I think we should definitely get all Pacific Northwest owners together for a cruise in the Spring. Maybe all drive up past Whistler to Pemberton, do the Duffy Lake road, and come back into Vancouver via the Fraser canyon?

Ian- Sounds like a plan and a half. It will give everyone lots of time to wax their cars too! The route is sounds good but I think the whistler road is a two lane, right? Correct me if I'm wrong. Anywho, I'm off to replace my accessory belts and flush the rad.
