Side Stripe Decals - Am I Crazy?
I'm up late and cruising Ebay for random stuff, when I come across these side stripes:
Somehow, I like them. Fun, inexpensive, and temporary. Why not? Maybe white or red stripes on my dark blue car.
I know it's contrary to the general vibe on RL, but I thought I'd throw it out there for opinions.

The huge, blank billboard, slab sides are the most boring aspect of a 996. Anything to add interest to that bleak wasteland is more than welcome.

Try it, if you don't like it take them off.

Would these be for people that don't actually already know it's a Porsche when you drive by or to remind yourself it's a Porsche?

Why would they be against it? Ferry Porsche had graphics on his personal one-off 2.7
Good enough for Mr. Porsche good enough for me.
The UK graphics guys sell them for $80. The dealer set run about twice that. There are excellent YouTube videos demonstrating how to put them on in a snap.

Considering Porsche has a
history of

I think if you like it go for it, you can always take it off if you change your mind.
