What do YOU want? I wanted to add the Porsche script on the rockers of my race car to tie in the contrasting color from the front and rear bumpers, but never got it done. Personally, on your car the Porsche script would be much better then the Carrera script.

I think Porsche in silver would look good.

It doesnt matter, your car already looks great. It will look just as good, with or without. So, go ahead and do what YOU want to do. It's a win-win proposition.

Your car looks great as it is. No need to tell other people that it is a Porsche.

agree there is no need to tell others what it is. in fact i don't care if anyone knows what it is.

BUT the trim mounting holes are just kinda out there and looking at me like 'cover us up!' and i surely don't want to weld, sand, paint, etc. (not sure i could match the color anyways).

Stripes would look good on the track, but for "in town" drivin', it looks good the way it is.

Either way....though silver would get my vote. I don't see any rocker "panels", however.....

Normally I'm a fan of Porsche rocker script/stripes, but your car looks really good just the way it is. I know...it's hard stop doing stuff to your car.

You could always but a set, tape 'em on there, and see. I'm sure Mr. Tillton would love to sell you some.

For the trim mounting holes you can use small round stickers. From the distance you cannot see them.
