Nothing like that big Porsche logo running across that massive wing. Awesome! Going to the Festival this weekend and will keep an eye out for your car. Have a great weekend!

Where did you buy the stickers? From your dealer or online somewhere?

I would like to buy the 'RS' for the side of the wing.

I think you may have inadvertently swapped sides with the decals. The narrow side is usually the leading part. Also, seems a little short.

I took pictures of my 997 RS, stitched them together, made a vector drawing and stretched it out a little bit to make it fit (around 2 inches longer on 991 RS).

^^Yes GT345 need to swap sides.

997 wheelbase is shorter than 991 "I think about" 2-1/2" +/-.

The Suncoast and other parts departments last time I inquired only has 997 available and 991 was CXX PIA or have some other vendor cut them.

Practice makes perfect.. but you switched sides, will need to redo your left and right sides.

Yes i noticed it after I was done...

Can't really take it off to other side because I had to make cuts for the door.

The decals only cost me $35 dollars though so I can just order another set but I feel I am actually getting pretty good at this so yes practice makes perfect.

Now ironically the website I purchased these from have taken down their pictures for their decals... Seems like they were forced to but they said you can still get them through their FB page.

Protective Film Solutions in Santa Ana should be able to cut them last time I spoke with Ryan.

Great folks and work.

So after staring at my backwards door image (which doesn't look that bad) I decided to call SD Wrap to redo my decals.

The nice part is they cut the decals there so I will be going there tomorrow morning for a redo and maybe give them some artistic freedom since they really do some nice work.

I am actually happy I put these on myself because now I know exactly what I want and what color I want to go with.

Would of been sad if I paid someone to put decals on then not like them, so this was an inexpensive way to find out what I want.

I will post some images of the final job, and thanks again for all the nice comments was very nice to see I am not the only one that enjoys a nice decal.

.....but you need an RS to put them on.
Is there something you're not telling us?
