I guess it could look like I am, even though I am doing it for purely aesthetic reasons

I saw a 997.1 gt3 with RS graphics and accents. He was ridiculed into removing them.

dont waste your time or money.

first all, not many people like the .2RS graphics...... so to install it on a non RS would be a little out there....

when one installs graphics on a porsche that copy/resemble a specific model porsche then you begin to take on the appearance of a porsche that has been dressed up a little too much or looks like a possible salvage title car built at a back yard body shop.....

Okay, okay, you convinced me. I did not know that putting on some stickers on MY OWN car has such serious ramifications!

hehehehe..... no biggie. It is a matter of ones choice.

you wouldnt know now that we are all a bunch of concours judges

it is just how many times we have all seen regular carreras with "GT3" script on them and thought to ourselves "oh gawd that is a shame" or even worse, "GT3RS" on the doors of carrera 4 sometimes found on ebay etc....

for what it's worth I think that these mk2 RS decals are the WORST decals porsche has put on a car in 15 years. I'd rather put stripes on it to look like a "porsche design" edition.

and rear decal too, "flat out".
I am replacing my rear decal with FLAOUT and add them to the 2 doors a la GTS and GT2RS :-)
My wrapper guy took pics of my car and should be photoshopping CUPR graphics one as well.
