What's your spoiler say?
 

Hey fellas,
I've seen the vinyl stickers on some of the retractable spoilers such as "Boxster," "986", etc.. help me get creative here! I want to put one on there that is a little bit humorous/philosophical/not ordinary. ("see ya!", "don't tailgate", "i brake check")

This car full of blondes drove past me today and i was thinkin,
"Blondes Welcome" lol

anybody?

i'll put someone's website on there for a small fee :)
or i can support the board if they had vinyls available for it :)

what are ya'lls ideas?

Mine says, "Porsche."
It's not very creative, but it looks nice, and I like it. I would avoid anything offensive, and stick with something classic like, "Speedster, Spyder, Boxster, 986, Porsche," but I have seen some people who do thinks like, "Ye'haa!" It's up to you, it's your car. :cheers:

vinyl name/logo for the independent mechanic I use "Zotz"

Mine says "You have just been passed by a girl". This might be a good time to mention that my drives mine.
I just make sure that when I pass people that I do it so fast they don't get a chance to read it, I am one ugly girl

Mine also says PORSCHE in the correct font in white 4 inch letters. I too was trying to think of something more creative, but after giving it a long thought I stayed with Porsche. I do have a vinyl cutter and do some graphics on the side if you need something cut PM me.

Tschuess!
German for - Bye!

clever. but only those fluent in German would even get it....

I haven't put a sticker on my spoiler - but was also thinking of putting something there.

Maybe a nice Porsche crest sticker? Or the POrsche logo in the right font? my car is totally badge deleted on teh back..it was like that when I bought it - but I was thinking of putting the Boxster logo back, or maybe doing the 986 numbering...

I removed "Boxster S" from the rear deck lid (looked cheap) and now the car has a nice, big smooth ass! I went to the dealer and bought a new plastic Boxster S logo because I destroyed the one I took off and stuck it on the spoiler. That way, people know what just blew by them. And yes, it does clear when deploying and retracting the spoiler.

I like it. Plus it sounds right - like wind and speed. If you hadn't explained it, I would have looked it up, so 23109, I don't think the people that would get it or appreciate it would be limited, if you really like it.

Now Quickurt, that Japanese bit in your sig - that's totally out there. :) :eek: Even since you have added an explanation, I'm still, you know, like duh uh?

As to my .02 for a spoiler message, having nothing is in keeping with the understated design, function, and sophistication of the OEM spoiler. But I am a Less is More person. :)

I've seen a board member here with "Kills Bugs Fast." Thought it was pretty cool.

I have a plain silver PORSCHE decal on mine.

MACH SCHNELL = "Go Faster!" in German

ahh i love that!
i also love the "bye" one! (im mostly german)

Hey Mark, thanks for the offer! when/if i decide what to put ill be contacting you!

haha, here's one that would be fitting for me: "Late for work"

maybe the cops would be more lenient? lol

also because of my age, i get a lot of "ah is that your dad's?"...
so a "yes it's mine" sticker would be funny too!

This bumper sticker cracked me up too:

Someone here, I think DJ has

Auf Wiedersehen

on his!

Nothing... that is, it doesn't say Nothing... it doesn't say anything :cheers:

I find the spoiler so ugly when raised that the last thing I want to do is call attention to it with a message.

i kind of agree - it's a weird looking spoiler...i mean...I guess the Porsche engineers know what they are doing, and it's functional - but it does kind of look like a bizarre protrusion sticking up, rather than a pretty spoiler.

not to take this thread off topic - but is there a way to bypass the spoiler function and just stop it from going up? does it REALLY help at freeway speeds? i mean, if i were to shut it off = would I really notice any difference i handling? i'm no engineer - but it just doens't look like it does a whle lot...does it..or is it more of a gimmick..

to get somewhat back on topic - while I do agree that the spoiler looks a bit weird - i think with the right logo/sticker/emblem on the back of it - done nicely...it adds to the look and would make the car look better.

A great big PORSCHE sticker would look cool. no ne has posted a pic of it, but I found a pic elsewhere like that..it looked nice...the lettering was almost as big as the "MACH SCHNELL" sticker linked above...

how about making the spoiler retractable ONLY if you want it up and then put something on their like "KISS MY A$$" and then when somenoe is tailgating you you could hit that button and stick it up so they coudl read your "message".

a slightly upscale way to flip the bird! :) okay - i wouldn't really do that...but it would be funny..

what about "NO SUBSTITUTE" on the spoiler?!?!

I think if I were going to put a sticker there - I would do that. get it done in porsche lettering if possible - large stickers to fill up the whole thing.

"NO SUBSTITUTE"

I think most people have seen enough Porsche advertising/commercials to get that one - and it's true!

That's a good one. Schnell is cool too.

If I were to get a shop to make the sticker, do you guys know what's the curvature for aligning fonts? Thanks.

you can manually raise/lower the spoiler if you wanted to.
kinda a hassle reaching by the floor though...

was thinking bout those Cadillac commercials that say "When you turn your car on does it return the favor?"... well the answer is yes lol

couldn't fit all that on there though...

"rice burner"

"PORSH-uh"

How about "ricer eater"
