What graphics, if any?

I've just put a ducktail on my 79SC so I have nowhere to put the 911SC emblem.

What do you guys think about graphics on the tail, if so, what would you do?

I was also thinking of "Carrera" graphics on the side, or is that a no no on a SC?

Here's a couple of pics:



Thanks, Stu

Personally, I think your car looks great the way it is.....kind of like less is more...

maybe a pair of stone guards ala 930 to protect the rear flares.

Actually - put some clear ones on- Brad is right- the car looks very nice in that color w/o any graphics bling

I have no side graphics on my Carrera....but I could not resist having a one-off emblem made for the Ducktail.....

I am sure I won't be a popular guy here for saying this, but leave it clean. Everybody and his brother has a "Carrera" script on his car...yet few are what they say they are.

It already spells Porsche in huge letters on the back..I think you've got a good clean look. Keep it!

Nice looking car!

The SC emblem would be OK, after all is part of it.

Keep it clean = NO GRAPHICS.

Keep it the way it is. It looks good.

What are you going to do with your SC emblem? I'll take it off your hands.
