once in one of our local Used car dealer, they had two 912Es, one white and the other yellow. they ended up painting the white car yellow but they covered the middle, so when they were done the car had a 1 foot wide white strip in the middle, this one just reminded me of that 912E.

Only if someone thinks so, if you like it do it. These cars don't exactly have a huge die hard group of collectors snapping up perfect originals...but you see it sometimes

just my feellings

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

If you are looking to keep a car ready to sell, a stripe like this will thin out the crowd of potential buyers.

I am disappointed with this paint stripe. A better solution would have been to accomplish it with Wraptivo.

I also thought that sharks teeth could be used.

I am not associated with this product.
