Haha.. Thanks guys. Actually, placement of the individual letters was not that difficult. Once you figure out the dead center spot to place the S (the middle letter), all you have to do then is to place half inch tape to the right and left of the S, and then place the next letter to each side and so on. Just make sure you get a long strip of painters tape to mark the bottom line where the letters will run on top of.

The factory letters are done top notch, and already have the 3M tape below them, so all you have to do is mark the right place to put them, and you're good to go.

That's really cool looking! It's too bad it is doesn't curve with the shape of the car, but none-the-less it looks fantastic.

Thx. Actually, as they are individual letters, you can place them in any configuration/curvature you choose. However, I am far too lazy to try to measure out the perfect curve...especially when it's 20F outside, so I did it the easy way.

It looks tilted.

J/K!

So where'd you buy it and how much was it?

I think I just might put that on my car. Maybe.

I got mine from Ric at Suncoast Porsche. I think he is offering it for around $40 right now on their website. At the time, I know I picked up the only one he had just gotten in, but I know he ordered more.

Very nice. I may ask for one for my birthday.
