Conservative guess is that it adds at least 20 HP. For $6 it is the greatest mod in the history of mods
That's it. I had them throw it in the box with some other stuff, so no shipping charges. $5 for any Porsche mod is unheard of, so I thought why not.

The car is in storage for winter, I'll see how I like the look this Spring when I get it out again. In the Northeast, it's nice to find little things to do to the car in the winter, if you don't drive it.

Heck, just get a paper punch, bingo, perfectly round decal.
Does look good red, though.

LOL, IMO, for the minimal cost, it is not worth any effort whatsoever to try to DIY, unless you happen to have a decal machine and red material on hand. I can't believe after what these cars cost, anyone would be concerned about excess markup on a $5 item. And BTW, they even give you 3 for $5, so it's a bargain! :-)

So you are saying that there should be no worries about a $5 decal on a $100K car?????

That's right .....use logic...... that will make all us pull into the pit.........

(Love your humor sir!!!)

I get it. I did think of the paper punch idea and if I had red some material hanging around, I would have tried it :-)

But then the HP per dollar return would be greatly reduced.

Is it just me, or is that red dot not centered...?
