Default My new Fender Decal

Hey Guys,

I bought one of the ebay fender decals(not the fading one) and put it on my '86 951. I really like it. I know it is not the factory decal, but I can take it off anytime and put the factory one on. I posted some photos for your judgment.

I like it. Period correct. What's the difference between the factory one vs. eBay?

It doesn't really matter what I or anyone else thinks, if you like it, but personally although I don't dislike it, I never thought it was a typical Porsche great design. It's sort of neither here nor there compared to the chequered flag design on GT3s or even the stone guards on a 911 etc. It doesn't add anything to the car for me

The difference between the factory decal and the ebay one is the "fade" of the lettering. Probably other differences, but that is the giveaway from 20 feet.

I'm stuck between "it was a factory option" and "do I really want the decal on there". I keep saying applying it isn't my style, but I can't seem to eliminate it from consideration.

I've never regretted putting mine on...not one time.

(though i do have the factory fade. Ordrered using PCA discount through my local dealer. It was around $80)

Rick, I blame you and your avatar for keeping the thought of one on my mind. I've got some winter items to tend to, and I'm betting I'll have the decal on the list.
