AWESOME!
Where did you buy the SC wheels, I thought they were made only for the wide bodies???? What you did, is exactly what I am going to do! haha
The only diff would be that I might go w/ silver paint in the middle to compliment the decal, not sure yet.

FWIW, the main reason for deleting the logo was to give it a cleaner look (imo) and make it easier to wash (dry...), wax, etc.
Gotcha, all personal preferance. It's not about standing out for me either, I simply like the look. I find it very sporty and edgy. My kids will love it also. They are hooked on xbox 360 "need for speed" and they always run the GT2 w/ the side decals. haha

Here is the link to what I am talking about and this is my color scheme, blk w/ silver.

specific decals are appropriate on club racing cars or cup cars.
decals on a regular street car look very odd, and it is a very polite version of what I really think.

The side stripes are a heritage thing with Porsche. They have been doing it now for about forty years. Get over it already. I think they usually look good.

As to standing out, well, my car is not exactly under the radar stealth anyway.

Nice pictures Phil, thinking about doing the side stripes in the future myself.

Thanks for being polite! haha
Just so you and others know, This isn't a weak thread of "Hey guys, should I do it"? "What do you think", etc. I could care less about what anybody thinks. I like it and that's all that matters to me. This thread is to show them off.

Looks great! But how did you get the SC wheels to work with the narrow body?
