More Gratuitous Fishcop Photos (Photoshop Favour Too)

Greetings fellow perveyors of Stuttgart's finest...

A couple of people have asked for some side shots of my car, and naturally I couldn't wait to post

Couls someone also please photoshop some side stripes onto the first photo. The ones I'm refering to are like Bob Tilton, Keith Seume and Jack Olsen have (the old non-carrera ones). I can't decide between black or silver.







Cheers

Looks pretty good as is! But I'd go with silver 'Porsche' script if it were me - a little more subtle.

With all that chrome? Silver!

Looking very sharp too, John!

John, I'd go with either silver or white.

BTW, your car looks great!

Black gets my vote. A satin finished vinyl would bring the tire black out and give the car definition without drawing away from the chrome on the upper part.

Just my two cents.

Beautiful car/color. I 2nd the silver. Personally I think a "Carrera" script goes better with a duck tail.
Now if we could only coax Jack O. to post a picture once in a while...

Nice

That is one damn nice looking car.
I am glad you posted that, more pix for my files.
I also have been contemplating a CARRERA silver stripe.
I still can't decide, sometimes I really love the plain look.
Thing is, I get bored and start adding junk... that's how the front and rear deco got put on - I was bored hahahahaha

Anyone have suggestions on how to fit the side deco along the bottom for flared cars??? Do you just bend it??



Thanks! And great car!

John... there comes a point where even the best of us run out of things to do to our cars... the 7s and 8s are added... new paint...sunroof delete...duck tail/front spoiler...polished wheels...racey mirrors... et cetera.

IMO, you've reached that point.... I know I know, it may be hard to grasp... but your car looks fantastic....to do anything more to it would be a step backward.

Leave is as is!

Looks great, I vote for silver.

FYI - I tried sending you a PM back but your box is full.

The place that made mine are in your neck of the woods, I'm pretty sure. And they're cheap enough so that you can try it out and peel it off if you don't like it.

Can we get that info on where to get these stripes?
Think I'd like to try it out and keep or peel of as necessary.
Thanks!
