I really like the way the Decal on the F77 looks I played around with Photoshop and came up with this. Added the stripe to say 911 S and added the GT3 intake, Black front lip spoiler and Techart mirror decals.

What do you think?

Buy an Evo-preza or an M3 if you want to do that kind of thing to your car.

Shawn,
I have seen a factory "Carrera S" script on a car at a dealer here in AZ that looked really good. The car was also an aero kit car.

So what you're saying is... You "don't" like it?

There's such a fine line between retro cool and crap. Gotta be careful. Get clear side markers first!

I already have the clears. I wont be doing this to my car I was just playing round with an old photo of my car. I like the Champion F77, wondered what mine would look like with some of the mods. I also like the retro look of some of the sticker packages like these

Shawn, I think it can look good if you made the stripe thicker and make it dark silver. Try it, you might see that contrary to what other people are saying, it will look good. It has to be thicker so that it is in scale to the car.

I owned an Evo and didn't do that to it... On a P-car? Ummm, no.

Sorry man, I can't go with you on this one.
