Porsche
Leave it alone - don't ruin a nice car with hillbilly, tuner decal crap. Anybody with any sense will know it is a Porsche - and the others? Who cares? Leave it alone or sell it and get a Jap car with a big exhaust pipe.

Clean and beautiful car! If it were mine, I wouldn't go with graphics - unless maybe it was important to me to advertise that it's a Carrera.
But to put "PORSCHE" down its flanks? Like, how many people gonna point at the graphics and say "Oh look! It's a Porsche!" Sorry, but the redundancy would leave me smirking if I saw "PORSCHE" plastered on the side of what is so obviously, probably to 90% of the world's population, a Porsche  .

Graphics on this car would be "period correct" so I don't see anything wrong with them.
Still...I vote keep it clean.

MHO. Delete the graphics. It looks real nice w/o the decals. It's not a real Carrera or a real RS unless you want to add an asterisk.
Reminds me. I'd always smirk when I saw the latest iteration from GM, Ford or Chrysler with chrome insignia with words like "Electronic Fuel Injection" or "Grand Turismo" emblazoned on each flank. I understood the individual letters that spelled out "Chevrolet" because, in many cases, that was the main clue differentiating it from a Buick, Olds, Pontiac or Cadillac. Another was the amount of chrome used; more in direct proportion to their marketing position. Can you imagine chrome bumpers on a current car? Maybe on the next retro-whatever from FOMOCOGMCHRYSLER.
