Default 2003 Porsche Cayenne Turbo Brake Caliper decals

Hi, can you confirm the font and size of the decals of the brake Calipers on a 2003 turbo uk model? I am going to get them remade and want them to look as original as possible! Thank you

I always assumed the lettering was painted-on with high-temperature paint (as is the paint applied to the caliper). Typical vinyl decals would melt when the brakes get hot.

The original lettering appeared to be painted on.

After more than 3 years (has it been that long?), the calipers still look great and the decals are holding strong with no issues. Details on lettering dimensions in the thread below:

actually, oem is silk screened. Vinyl will hold up just fine though. I use vinyl stickers and coat with a clear powdercoat on top when refinishing calipers, and I've refinished over 3000 sets in the last 10 years. The logo on this one is all vinyl and the clear coat was cured at 400 degrees after applying the stickers
