Don't have it but I like it, especially on the old 911 SC.

Please post pictures! Thanks.

I like these on the 1970s cars but no later. They were best suited to the 1974 and 1975 Carreras (emulating the days of the 911 IROC race).

I like the look, have toyed with the idea myself. Would love to see pics from others who have done this. I've seen 'em in some avatars, so they're out there...

Not my cup of tea! What happens if you change your mind?

I have them in matte black on my black car. They will be coming off soon due to the matte black film becoming lighter in color. I like to look and may do it again in a different color.

Looks tacky on the modern cars IMHO.

Maybe accessorizing with decals is a regional thing. I'm sure they'd be taken as normal in SoCal, but thoiught of as over the top in Kansas.

Kinda like snow chains? If I lived in Scandinavia I would use these accessories year round!

Yes! 365 days a year, snow or no snow, just to intimidate other performance car drivers at stop lights.

See? The snow chain accessories would make zero sense on SoCal.

Seems like not many guys have them on the board here. I like that, being different.
I know of another guy on the board that does though, his name is Brendo. he will chime in soon here. As soon as I slap them on, I will post the pics. Also, I am soon going to put on the Sprot Classic's black Fuchs, once they come out for the normal bodies. I have always been a huge fan of the 73' RS look!

It's definitely a unique look---I think it's sharp.

Looking forward to seeing photos after you place the decals.

Default Pics of my side stripes

I can't get the pics to download here for some reason. Here is a link to a similar thread on 6speed where I have attached a photo.

Size:  48.7 KBI wanted a white 4s with a areo kit, found this in FL and was not sure if I liked the red wheels or lettering, figured I could remove lettering and paint wheels if I disliked that much, love it now, this car was ordered in honor of the 73 coupe. Brumos did I great job I think, (imo)
