Patt Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Hardest part was removing the left over adhesive: Before: 5 Minutes later (hot day + dental floss): Cleaned up in another 15 minutes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patt Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 The shark decals came off much easier with almost zero residue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank is at the top of "Billy Goat Pass" a rather enjoyable part of the route to/from Le Mans.

Mine is a white 2005 and I’m nervous that if I remove the lettering will I still be able to see a paint mismatch from weathering? Some have, some haven't. If you have, put the badge back on! Comes off on a hot day with dental floss; caramel wheel is to remove adhesive residue, but we never heard of one before Mr Sweet Tooth came along, so probably elbow grease is fine (or WD40?) Plenty take them off, usually as the B gets snapped, and leave naked / replace / put PORSCHE are all options. You could even get a 968 and 718 badge and mix to make 987, IF they are the same heights.

Patt Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 If there is any ghosting under the badge a quick polish will remove the shadowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He added a Porsche Detail to the spoiler too Also quite liked that! So have given it a go as well : Initially thought I probably should have put it a bit lower, but it's actually still visible if you're driving behind it, as I found out by sitting in the wife's car that's parked behind mine in the garage 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medic-one Posted June 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) I still like the look of those red decals on that 911 on the first page, so I've bought some and put them on to see what it's like. I quite like the look, but if I change my mind they come off easily and they were only 60 quid so no harm done.

Paul P Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Personally not a fan of after market stickers but occasionally I see something that i like this is one of those times. I like those side decals on your car. Works well on the white car nice one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammysmiths Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 Ive been looking at the side decals in dark blue, as my roof is blue. I think black would look wrong, although i have painted the side vents black! Can i ask Medic-One, did you buy from designstuffonline? And did you get the single colour Typeface (extra) decals? Do they finish as a curved sticker at the back of the door, or do you just cut them to suit? The sticers shown go all the way to the rear wheel arch.

Medic-one Posted July 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 I did get mine from Designstuffonline. Asked a few questions via facebook messenger first which were quickly replied to, and after ordering the decals arrived after a few days. I went for these ones, which are not the Boxster ones, but the "Porsche Cayman (987) 'Cayman R' style Side Stripe Decals" which are £ 60, https://www.designstuffonline.co.uk/vehicle_graphics/model_make_specific/porsche/porsche_987_cayman_decals.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
