looks perfect I set it as a wallpaper on my PC. I m going to put the orange ones on my black 6 in the same style. That's what I've been thinking for long time. RS is only for Rs but CS fits very good because your car is in club sport style.

I think that is a little contradictory. Every designation used rather than the original one is incorrect, no matter is a RS, CS, Cup, R, RSR.
Club sport style like you said is much more than adding just a pair of seats. My point is: we all agree that Juha's car is beautiful and the fact that he putted a CS sticker is irrelevant. He likes it and that is all that matter. I never saw it as a poser thing. The withe cars always screamed for decals
That GT3 CS decal is a keeper.

RS, Cup, R, RSR is a different cup of tea. CS option have different origin and was designed mainly for use- street. For example 968 CS was created bacause the price the standard one was too hight (especialy to 911) and the amount of sale was on the decrease.
The difference between GT3 and CUP,RSR,R or even RS are bigger than CS.
Anyway I think that the advantage of this looking is huge but the difference between standard and CS specyfication are small. Sometimes even average ethusiast of Porsche doesn't know the point.
The extinguissher and rollbar does not make the cup car.

Of course not, that's why my car is only a GT3, and I don't call my car a GT3 Cup. . And for the record, the Clubsport package it's a little more than that. It included bolt-in roll cage (not a rollbar), bucket seats with Nomex flame-resistant covering, three-point safety belts in guards red, six-point Schrot safety belt, battery disconnect switches fitted in the luggage compartment and forward of the gear lever on the centre tunnel, a Werner fire extinguisher and in the Mk1 the single-mass flywhee (a feature you only get in the RS nowadays).

Having had the opportunity to see this car in person a few days ago, I can say it looks great in real life. Juha is as far from a poser as you can possibly get. He's a good guy and his car is wicked fast.

Regards the CS I can assure you that there is no GT3 CS model. The only 911 CS model that ever existed was the 1978 911 Carrera CS, the first 911 Clubsport.
Actually, the 911 CS was in 1988: http://356-911.com/post1974/modernsp...1carreracs.htm
