Default Special thanks to member John McM

I’d like to thank John for all the details he’s provided me this last few months. I acquired a Spyder that’s requiring a bit of rehab. John has provided me with a good deal of information to get some aspects back to factory correct. He’s taken a number of measurements and photos of his cars to assist me in making the right decisions. It’s a pain to do this and photograph mundane details, so I wanted to make sure to give him credit. Some other members have also answered my silly threads about minutia, and it’s all greatly appreciated. Today I was able to apply my side stripes with all the correct factory details thanks to John. It’s the little things that make a difference to me. Thanks to the community here for the help. Cheers Steve

Thanks Steve, I was happy to help, especially as my broken Spyder will require new decals when they fade the front end paint over the doors. I’m not paying Porsche USD 750 for a pair of basic decals I can get made locally.

I agree, as much as I love to support the home team I’m not paying $750 for decals. I paid $60 for my pair from a very nice vendor out of Canada, Chris at Sticker Garage. He uses high quality 3M products and the size was pretty damn close to the factory decals.
