Cayenne Brake Job, which decals?

I had the pleasure of doing a full brake job on my Cayenne this past weekend.

I looked over the DIY on rennlist and figured it was easy enough...New Rotors, Pads, Hardware, Sensors, Racing Blue Fluid, and a repaint of all the calipers.

Now, what decals should I put on the calipers. "Porsche" or "Brembo". personally I am leaning towards "Brembo".

If any of you guys have done this, where did you get the decals, and what sizes were they?

Nice job painting the calipers! Are they Brembos? Either way I would put Porsche decals on them.

I put the Porsche decals on mine I think they look better with that on there. I got them on ebay they are made of vinyl and were just a few bucks for six of them.

Mine are from the factory, red with "Porsche" on them. Is this a turbo thing? I thought all Cayennes had them painted?

Mine were painted with "porsche" as well. I re-painted the calipers red and clear coated them before I saw they have templates you can buy to repaint "porsche" back on there.

As I was searching online, I noticed some people have "brembo" on the caliper instead of "porsche" and thought it looked pretty neat. I went ahead and bought the "brembo" hi temp decals. I'll post pictures as soon as I get them on.
