Utah,
I really like the idea of starting the stripes at the front bumper, just behind the lights. The stripe width is similar to the height of the turn signals, so it looks interesting to start there and continue to flow back to the doors until it stops at the shark fin (instead of over the fin until the fender). I like the natural upward sweep created by the fin, makes for a nice point to stop the script. I don't like it on the rear bumper though.
Regardless of stripe or no stripe, a black 964 with black wheels looks so menacing! I want one.
PS: I also darkened/tinted the exhaust tip. It's the only shinny part on the exterior.

Ha, ha, I was wondering the same thing! The black wheels got me.

Remembering my words in this thread, I laughed to myself last night when I saw a picture of the new Cayman R...

Love the contrast of the silver wheels and especially love the German Flag orange/red stripe but would extend to rear bumper as well.
Got Speedlines in your Photoshop?
