Color combo suggestions needed.

Hey I need some color combo suggestions for the side lettering for my 911. Some inspiration maybe? Thanks in advance. -Anders

I agree with Ron, but if you’re set on lettering, I’d consider a grey similar to the wheels or a subtle blue.

I agree with Gumby and jac1976. Your car is absolutely gorgeous as it is. The colour, the wheels and that aggressive stand and ST wheel arches says it all.
But….and a big BUT….if you are bent on lettering, then consider setting it down really low between the wheel arches, otherwise it will adversely affect the aggressive stand. By that I mean the bottom line should run under the door, the lettering should “sit” on the bottom edge of the door with the top line right above it and should be well below the bumper belt line. This is what I finally ended up with on my car after several tries.



jac1976’s letter colouring is spot on…”grey similar to the wheels or a subtle blue”.

Stripes the same color as your wheels. "Porsche" in a bold color if you want it to stand out, same color as the stripes if you want a subtle look.

I agree, I like it as-is but it's a $100-200 sticker that can be removed if you get tired of the look.

Only problem I see is there isn't any trim on the bumpers so the stickers are going to sort of "hang out" on their own. There's no lines that continue them around the car.
