Any thoughts ?


Use this and remove the letter ‘T’



Or, use this as is.

$65. Go nostalgic, the second one doesn’t look right on our cars.

I actually like the 911 script on the 991, and it is a throwback (actually more of an homage) to the original logo, not new script at all.

For me, was never a fan of multi-color badging.

I like it, but it looks like your spoiler is stuck in the up position.

Like it - the contrast looks good on a white car

i’ve had my GTS now for about three months, I had the extensive wording on the back since new and honestly I can’t stand it. I just changed it to just GTS in black. I cannot even tell you how much more I like it makes the car look more exclusive less like a Carrera more like a GT3
