I like it! Nicely done! The side stickers are not my taste but it's your car so enjoy. Any other mods coming?

Did you paint the calipers yourself or had it done? Looks good but any closeups of that?

I was wondering why the 4S stickers... isn't that a Carrera 4?

yes, it is a 4, but i thought it wouldnt hurt no one if the rear badge and the door stickers said 4S, so heck i went on with it, i am still missing the 50 hp, but as i dont track it, i cant really notice it on the street

It's fine to buy and drive a regular carrera, but very weak to put false stickers on the car advertising that you bought an S variant, when you didn't.

Looks cool. Do what you want with the stickers, but like most will say, it is not a C4S.

Looks good but did you consider painting the calipers yellow and upgrading with these fancy stickers? If you are going to upgrade to another model, why not go big?

Are the wheels plastidip or painted? Would you mind sharing a rough price range? They look gorgeous BTW

Are you able to code the MFD to say "Carrera 4S" instead of "Carrera 4" when you start the car?

"Well, here's the truth: nobody cares about your little badge except for car enthusiasts, which leads us to an even bigger reason why this sort of behavior is a bad idea: because the only people who CARE about this stuff all know you're lying!"
