Decal spells ethos, no?

Honestly, I don't love this particular decal, but I'm keeping it because it's part of the T. I'll be PPF'ing right over it!

The side decal in Agate does not fit MY ethos. I I think I’m going to fabricate the same side decal in Python green to complement the lizard interior.
My head scratching rendition that is in the works to honor my T. I might even go for a more diminutive side decal like the gt3. But maybe I leave the side clean. The side looks so nice clean.

I plan to add these stripes over the top and on the wing. They are gray. Hopefully they match the side stripes.

PRO for sure! Its unique, looks way better/more retro compared to most side decals that go on other models... The T side decal falls more in line with the GT3 and GT3RS lettering. I would never get "GTS" or "Carrera 4S" in small letters on the front doors, but I will certainly be keeping my side decal. Ties into the wheels, mirrors, CF roof etc

Lol good one. Love the 991Ts and like some of the options available on those but NLA for the 922T. Unfortunately the good 991T's never seem to come up for sale. And super glad I didn't buy one a year ago now that I see prices crashing. Also super nice to not have to scrutinize build sheets and compromise for someone else's 991T build. My order freezes in 2 days and it is exactly what I want.

Doesn’t get any better than that. Hope production goes fast, it gets delivered faster, and you’re able to drive the wheels off it!

I'm in the no decal camp, esp w/this color, but who cares what we think - it's all about what you think. And since you originally selected the decal delete, my suggestion is to follow your first instinct.

I was originally a no on side decals and T badge for a cleaner look…my latest GT Silver build reflects this but after seeing at @immo GT Silver build with side decals I’m leaning towards adding them before my build locks. The agate gray looks great on GT Silver.

I'm also in the no decal camp. Stickers for me are for 80s 911s. Absolutely my opinion.

I'm pro, goes back to Classic Porsches, it's a tribute to the Heritage and is part of the Ethos.

I'm pro - nothing quiet or sleeper about the 992 even in grey/white/black colors. It is pretty stunning IMO. I am going all in off the high dive into the deep end on mine. Not cliff diving with the aero package but just short of that...

I'm in the do-what-you want camp. I deleted mine then added them back on. If I like them in person, I'll keep them. However, I'm pretty sure they're not going to make it. The badge will likely go too. What matters to me is what's inside. But to each their own.

This resonated with me, they’re coming off. Running tally — 7 PRO, 5 AGAINST.

I was anti decal for my 991 T and wanted them off before I picked it up, the sales guy suggested I keep them on as they’re a part of what makes it a T.

They’re still on😊
