So I decided to removed the side stripes and center stripes.

The car looks cleaner, I think..

I put the flat black GT3 on doors, wing, and visor with a matte white PORSCHE on the visor. Car looks totally different than what it did... Like getting a new car!




It used to look like this...

Love the cleaner look and the GT3 on the door looks factory and understated. I can really do without the stripes on these cars, the shape of them alone speaks volumes.

I like what you did to change it up. I may do the same in the Spring and change some things. I love having the GT3 in white because it gives me many options

Where did you get the GT3 for the door?

Is it on both sides?

is it also just one piece?

Looking good! I normally don't like the black headlights on a white car since there is very little black on the rest of the car, but they're working well with your dark tint.

I like it better WO stripes. A car with large spoilers does not need stripes IMO

Wow, can't believe all the naysayers for the stripes. I guess they all hated the stripes on the 997rs 4.0

I liked for the last 9 months. The double stripes made it look narrow... The single stripe may have looked better. It was time for a change and with the decals on top of the XPEL, replacement takes no time and is fun.

I was thinking of adding something to mine but I had CQuartz finest applied. I'm sure that would be a problem now?

True... Give it a few more months - it may end up there!
