Good choice on the colour - subtle and slightly understated.

To each, his own To me it looks a bit too much towards the front. Singer Porsches and in general older Porsches have a different font, size for the stripe. The Singer 911's stripe "fills" the door's width.



Then there's the "modern take" on this - the old Boxster Spyder or the 911 R's stripes. Those have bigger, less-fat font and they're centered along the door's width.



I did something similar for my car - just found a shop via eBay and give instructions on the dimensions, font, etc



Not to say that one is better than the other => It is your car, you should be able to make any updates to suit your tastes
