Many thanks, I owe you a beer or 3 If you ever make it to South Florida.

Now that I see it, I might skip the frosty stuff, it isn't going to match the wheels.
I will probably thin out the strip a bit and have the strip include the small pieces in front of the front wheel and behind the rear wheels.
Seems to flow nice..

Suggestions anyone?

Nice PS work, but not digging the look. IMHO.

There is no way to tone down all the red anyway, so might as well try to tie it together with some stripes..

The red stripe is too much on the white car. IMHO.

I really like the combo on that 996. Keep the red down low, with black mirrors and end plates. Sporty and classy at the same time!

What do you think?

I really like all black, but it means powder coating the wheels and wrapping mirrors mouth and winglets.

Like Nizer, at first I has silver wheels with the plan to get rid of all the red. Then I changed back to red wheels, now I don't know.

I don't know if the car has been locked in yet.

trakcar, stay with white on red.
on order guide i do not see delete of red trims.
mirror and winglet are cheap to paint.
if you dont like decal, peel off.
keep red wheels. why? not many cars have red wheels. most are black or silver. i would take red wheels and you know you will get two more sets of wheels. get one in blk one in silver. see... not hard ;-)

Thanks for the idea's.

I am sure it will be white.
I am also sure that I will not have the original stcikers
I am also sure I will not keep the red mouth.

As of today, it will arrive white red, no decals, I will make moth black, maybe also mirrors and wing tips, or white and a small strip over the car..
