Talking Half Nekkid...

Finally found the courage and started pulling off the graphics of my car. Got rid of the ghastly fender decals and then the long strip at the bottom of the door. Then I realized this doesn't look too terrible. Maybe I'll keep it like this for a bit

And before anyone complains, the full set of factory graphics will be delivered with the car to the next owner!

Subtle, nice.

Unfortunately the next owner won't have numbers matching decals.

I kinda like the graphics. I much prefer the silver wheels to the red. Still thinking about carbon mirrors but going to keep red for now. Different colors for different folks. Biggest thing I need is a rear bypass.

I agree with Mike...I prefer no graphics on the .2. On the .1 RS the graphics are a must.

Negative. Naked is best for all Porsches. They don't need sticker adornment.

I've never been a big fan of the .2 RS decals...especially the fender "GT3RS" decals. I like it!

Only thing better than no stickers - is no stickers, and all one color.

Good move from aesthetics point of view. To me, either you keep it full original or get the stickers out. RS look very cool without decals as you can see on the pics and through many around...

I'd remove all stickers and make the accents GT Silver, saw one like that at Champion Motorsport once. Looked really subtle and mean.

Also once saw one Gray (same as yours) with orange accents and that looked fantastic as well!
