Don't! It's a gorgeous car.
If you can't fight the itch any longer, get the insets (between the five petals) painted black. But it's beautiful as is.

The other car with the red looks good............one or the other.

I say SCRIPT it!
I would choose white but that is because I have a thing for black/white except I preffer it the other way around... It would be easy to remove if you decided otherwise. It would be cheap to do and I personally like the script. I pondered for quite some time before deciding to give it a try. I told myself that I would remove it if I didn't like the look. Well, I have left it on because I personally think it looks great. I say SCRIPT it! ![]() ![]()

BRG,
If you aren't going to drive the car this weekend, then leave the keys behind, I will take it out for some exercise. Michael

Chiming in ...
Leave it alone. Beautiful car. Suggestion: Get another 911 that needs some work. I did that and definitely don't have time for fixin' somthing that's not broke.

Rick, that is a nice look. It really is, and you have a Carrera. So, it fits. I won't put Carrera on my 71 because that would be like saying it's an RS, which it is not. I did order some MikeZ PORSCHE script to put on my black primered car just to see how I like it. Same as Jack Olsen's car. I'm getting a Mobile Pegasus as well.

All right guys, I see all your points and they are apreciated, no script it is.
Only think left to ponder is black Fucsh or re-crome to look like new? Zeke, did you say magnetic flames? why not some tastles hanging from the sun visors and a cow on the door? I couldnt help it, sorry!

BRG,
Don't forget you can try one of my wheels out on your car, might give you something to play with. Where are you going to leave the keys? Michael

Go with the script and add a duck tail and you have a really unique and awesome looking car - particularly with the wide body factored in -

BRJ,
Looks like you're considering updates to personalize your car. Perhaps adding Aero mirrors will work. IMO, they'll look great on your car and are reversible.

you still haven`t used the lens paint to darken your lenses? l bought some from an ad in a ricer magazine and used it lightly on some lenses l had lying around just to try it out.lt worked really well.The text on the can is Japanese,this is the real stuff !

She's beautiful as she is.
Is that white/ blue smoke coming out the exhaust? If so, spend your money to take care of that and maybe through in a few upgrades while you're in there ;-)
