Question Correct Size for Calipers? Porsche Stickers

I searched. Does that count?

Does it also count that I don't have my calipers physically in my possession at this moment too?

Are there differences in sizes from front to rear?

75mm x 6mm seems to be the size to use - am I dumb for thinking the fronts and rear decal sizes could be different ?

ilko says 75mm


best,

paul

I order 3 1/4 inch ones from these folks and they were a perfect match. They sell several sizes and give you two extras.

Paul,

Ilko is dead on. They should each be 3”, front and rear.

Front & rear "PORSCHE" lettering is identical.

Additionally, anyone who refinishes a set of calipers in a size other than the 3" script, will forever burn in hell as a heretic and no good, bat rastard!

YES! It's that important!!

Are you guys using these as a mask to paint on the lettering, or do these stickers hold up on their own? With a coat of clear over them?

I just measured one of the extra ones they sent me. It is in fact 3.25 inches. I didn't know. I don't want to burn in hell. This isn't fair.... I didn't know.... I didn't know....
