Default Matte Black "4"?

If anyone has one lying around they do not need please let me know, like shown in the pic, and it does not need to have adhesive:

Not exactly sure. I am working on wrapping the inside door trim that around the speaker and someone said that the "targa 4 GTS" on the sill looks out of place so I might wrap it and put the emblems on it. However, they are bigger and I may want to use decals since there may not be room as the door closes over the sill.

I think the door sill looks good as is. I would leave it alone, don’t add emblems over it in my opinion.

You think putting a plain 4 there will look better than stock? That will look terrible. You are overthinking it. Leave it be! Sounds like you have the mod mania disease, awaiting the next opinion on what to change!

Don't take this the wrong way but if I listened to people's opinions here my car would be stock! I decided to wrap the oval in Miami Blue and put Matte Black "PORSCHE" over the top in the same font as on the rear of the car. I hope it will stay on as the door closes on top of the sill so if it starts to peel off I will revert to stock.

I wasn’t criticizing you, just sharing my opinion.

I know you are the emblem Master here lol

I know you weren't! I just think that they stick out now after I did the door trim.

I thought about the illuminated sills but needless to say they are only seen when the door is opened so I want to see how the wrapping turns out first.

I see what you mean, you want that blue theme all around.

I think it will look nice with just the word Porsche in black. Post pics after!

I wrapped the ovals on my gt4 sills when I had that car and wrapped the seat backs to see how I like them. I wouldn’t do carbon wrap again but flat black may look nice and blend in more than the silver.
