The script you have is the 996/997 script from 1999-2009.

hi drew,
kinda agree .... I did some comparisons a year or two ago and i know the font on my car was not a perfect match for the era, but i think it is closer match compared to the older one.
anyway both look great and your car is one of the best!

Again, great choice on the stripe. Goes great with that color

Any one with a white 964 tried something like the Martini racing stripes on the 930 turbo? Im tempted but not sure if it would look as good on a non wide body car.

We need to convince the builders of this site http://www.busselecta.com to add a 964 to the list of options!

I know p-shop photos give a more realistic idea but this site is a good bit of fun for trying different ideas

Hey, but at least they've got a forged version...

I assume the cast ones are pretty heavy, but the cost sure looks nice. I liked the wheel because it looks so similar to the Ruf's. I think I'd actually like them better painted but haven't gotten a chance to work up the photoshop.

What's he got in the works for a lightweight wheel?

This what you had in mind? You'll notice these are E88's, not LM's. i think they are better suited to the 964, although I can certainly do LM's if you'd like. Personally, I think this looks just right.
