Congrats! So are you still doing that 2RS-style striping? IMO, it looks better w/o it... the white w/ gold + side striping is more than fine and already very nice. Sometimes less is more.... but your car so enjoy!

Agreed. Very subtle and classy.

Stunning. IMO the elegance level would increase dramatically if you went sans the 2RS striping...but either way it's a great one!

Here is what it looks like without the hood stripes. I’m thinking about it.

My stripes are coming from Porsche cxx as are the wheels. The pic isn’t quite right - I’ll have carbon fiber mirrors and silver LED’s not black and the headlamp sprayers will be GT Silver too. On the interior, black buckets, carbon package incl shifter and illuminated and black silver peptia inserts.

Did not think so but I really like it better with the stripes. Gold wheels and side stripe looks great with the black stripes on top that match the rest of the black accents. Nice combination.

Touring variant with 911R side stripes *and* GT2RS stickers... thought you touring guys were all about “flying under the radar”.

Very nice. We know the CXX side decals are $1435. What’s the price for the white gold whew paint and the top stripes?
