I like the original image posted. Goes well when the top is up.
I've never seen the dangermobile with the top down. |
JD, I'm not sure I carry much kudos on this forum so feel free to ignore me.......I stand right behind 'ploughing your own furrow'. If it feels good, do it. This thread has proved both emotive and decisive.
When I look at the D'mobile I don't see a bad decision so far. Therefore trust your thoughts and do what you feel looks right . If you smile when you walk out of your house with the keys in your hand then it was the right mod for you. If it feel wrong in a few weeks, peel it off. We are talking 3.6 transplant money and if a freshen is what's needed to stay 986, do it! Keep that steering wheel on the right though... Embrace your in 'UK' ness! And remember.... You are a peacock - so fly my brother! |

Applying Decals to a Porsche Cayman - YouTube took me about 30 minutes. I could probably do it in 10 minutes now. |

I like the stripe on the yellow. Or maybe it is because of the kit you have, but now that I have seen pics with and without the stripe, I like it with.
And what is the deal with the top? I haven't ever seen a pic with the top down either???!!! |

I've been looking around online, particularly eBay, for the best price on a side skirt decal set. And, I've discovered prices ranging from $39 to $175 for what appears to be the same item. With that said, is there a level or grade of vinyl that distinguishes one from the other that I should be looking for ?

Come to think of it, I still have a 9ff decal set somewhere. Eh ?

The $80 I paid from the UK guys, who do commercial applications, seem to be about right. No issues with the vinyl coming off. Might not want to overlubricate the metal as it will be harder to stick but if you're fussy it will be easier to reposition before you squeege out the air bubbles. You want to be very careful with the letters. Make sure they're well-squeeg'd and let it set for a bit before pulling off the backing. And go slowly and evenly when pulling off the backing. For the ends, I kept some rubber cement handy and dipped a toothpick amount on the extreme edges so that it would hold while it dried. I picked up this white tiny letter opener xacto type knife from Staples to cut the edges. The blade was barely a milimeter or two deep. |

Any thoughts ?

I bought Vinyl lettering for the plane and the cast premium vinyl is the most durable and guaranteed to last at least 5 years in direct sunlight without yellowing or otherwise degrading.
