993 with stickers , decals
Any popular designs to compliment the curves of the 993 model ?
PORSCHE script , or , CARRERA script seem popular ... Anything else ?
If you have a 993 with decals applied , please post photos

Sounds like you want a RWB car...
A few do the Carrera script, but only looks good on a few select 993s. And proper race cars can have stickers. IMHO, no stickers needed (ok, PCA and a Rennlist sticker in the side rear window).
A 993 has curves you want to look at, not stickers. If you were dating a supermodel, would you ask her to cover herself?

Stickers and decals are a great way of temporarily changing things up and adding a little edge or uniqueness to your car. They're also a lot less costly that replacing and painting body paneling for an RS tribute look, or whatever look.
So if your tempted, why not give it a try?
I've been tempted to try out a wrap or decals that pays tribute to Pcar race heritage. Maybe some Martini racing style fender stripes that flow the length of the car.

Agreed with the comments above; you've got a lot of choice; from loud to subtle and it's not permanent.
There was a member that recently posted the transformation of his C4S and he added "ghosted" decals...Looks awesome:

I was thinking along the same lines as Bowman, sans the ghosted appearance.
I thought I ordered silver decals, but received white.
Unfortunately, I did not know what color I actually had till I was already committed to the application; so I kept on going...
I think silver would be much more subdued than the somewhat overstated white, and probably work better with the wheels.
The real beauty of these changes, are that they can be as temporary or permanent as desired; and at $25, is not a big investment for an appearance change.
I'm sure the GF would disagree, but most of us are not dating supermodel.

It's a subtle option where it's only seen when the light hits it the right way. If you look at some of the pics in that thread you'll see that the graphic only shows up in certain photos. I think that owner used reflective black vinyl, so that it looks black on black, but when headlights hit it, it's visible.

When ghosting is done with paint I believe it is usually done by adding a layer of clear pearlescent paint on top of the main paint color, but under the clear coat. (I'm no expert though.)
The point is it reflects the light at certain angles and is clear at other angles so it is very subtle.

I guess that could be a semi-long term concern, and more so for those that park outside.
Valid concern if one plans to make the decal a permanent fixture. For me, it's been simply entertainment factor till I take delivery of my, new to me, RS-GT's and have my calipers powder coated yellow.
