Not wild about it, but it's your car so do what you like!

Where did you source the vinyl? I’ve been considering doing a similar treatment to my Aerokit, but in gold.

If there was not photo I would probably say not for me, however, I keep going back to that photo...wow. It all works well with the white body and black wheels, I really like it, not that my onion should matter though.

It's 100 percent reversible and it's your car. I like to change things up from time to time, especially when they're reversible. For what it's worth, I think it looks good.

Dig it. Flows well on a white 996, especially with the black wheels.

I like it, my wife says “it looks good, but I wouldn’t do it. I wouldn’t want Porsche plastered all over it. I’d rather keep everyone guessing.”

Her statement has a kinda funny.
Yesterday at a local PCA Get ToGether someone told me I should put the GT3 badge “back on” the rear of my GT3 so everyone will know what it is. They looked disappointed when I told them the reason why it didn’t say GT3 is it’s a base 996.
They thought it was a 997 GT3.
Hurt their pride to not be able to correctly identify my car.
That’s one reason why I like it, it keeps people guessing.
I had the covered headlights on it yesterday.
I’ve has people ask me if it is a “2019 or a 2020.”
Thats happened with both covered and non-covered headlight on it.
The 996 is definitely not dated styling!
