Default Vinyl Sticker for brake calipers....

I'm going to be getting my calipers powdercoated very soon, and would like to know the best source for purchasing the Vinyl Sticker Porsche logo. I considered the stencil, but think it would be difficult.

BTW - I did a search with no success!

I bought some off of Ebay years ago when I painted my big brake kit for my SC. I do not recall the seller, but the stickers held up very well, never peeled and looked great. I think the key is apply the stickers to a very clean surface. They were something like $8 for 6 stickers, and came in a vaeriety of colors.
just go to ebay and search on "Porsche Brake Decal" and you will see several come up.

usually they give you 6 so you have 2 extras, but I only ever needed the 4 as they never peeled or got damaged. the stickers are very easy to apply, much easier and less time consuming than using a stencil.

There is a bunch to choose from on Ebay. Ive used two of them just recently. Both were good. Im sure that most of them there are OK. Wish I had a link to share but I dont. I would just make sure you are getting the right size. Some of them have diferent sizes and different colors to coose from. It is very inexspensive. Under $10 for six. GL and have fun.

he also sells on eBay. I cannot recall the right size for the 993...
his site says 3.5" but that sounds short to me. I may be wrong. Measure twice, order once
