Default "P O R S C H E" Decal.

Has anyone installed this side decal on their car?

WOW those look great.

I was thinking I might do a matte clear on my platinum silver

Thanks Guys. I bought several sets from different websites before choosing this look. These came from: http://www.designstuffonline.co.uk/v...che/index.html.

They are hard to photograph. Very subtle but obvious in person as you move around the car. Here is a quick pic this AM.

You could serve sushi on those wheels. So clean.

So do these letters fit into the existing raised letters on the tires? Or are they just slapped on over whatever is there?

Looked at that website, and looks like the latter.

Thanks Guys! Didn't mean to jack your thread. I'll post some pics after work today. The TredWear does bond onto the wall, permanently. The spacing may line up with the lettering but I chose to move it over to the smooth patch. I ordered a another set for my M4 with PSS. I haven't done those yet.

Very cool. I wonder what the Treadwear decals would look like with silver wheels. Perhaps a bit more subtle?

Nice job on the side scripts. They're an important part of the 911's history and I've always liked them on modern cars much better than the large CARRERA scripts that were revived on the 996 cars.

Have you seen the TredWear website gallery? Several examples of silver rims (probably not your exact rims). I get a lot of compliments on them. Page 2 has a red GT3RS.

Very cool. I do business with another company that makes a similar product. As a matter of fact a buddy of mine just had a new GT3 Cup car delivered to his shop and I really like the modern Michelin interpretation of the old school sidewall lettering. I'm even considering a set for my GTS once I decide if they are 'too much' or acceptable for a street car.
