Slate 01, you may want to contact the seller and let them know which one you want.
From ebay listing:
•Option 1 - Porsche
•Option 2 - Boxster
•Option 3 - Boxster S
Please tell me with your payment if you want Option 2-3 or I will send Option 1. Thanks

De-badge is fine if that's your style...I prefer my badging to none, however.

Yeah, sorry, Slate - just saw your post. You do have to send him a note if you want option 2 or 3, otherwise you will get "Porsche"
Clean your lens thoroughly before applying the decal and take your time and be careful - you only get one shot at it. I actually ordered two in case I fuct up the first one, so now I have a spare.

Thanks JM,
You mean you are supposed to thoroughly read those ads, lol?
I contacted them and got everything straightened out.

Been thinking about removing it for a while now. This has probably convinced me. Love the minimalism, not a fan of branding. That said, I'm thinking about the brake light but also concerned people behind me would hate it/think it too ostentatious.

I like the retro look of the bear bottom look. Plus I am an old customize r and always de badged my cars and I wish I had a pic of my '58 Impala custom convertible to share with you but I don't. Here is a pic (again!) of my clean butt. It all depends on what turns you on so go for what pleases you. Also I don't care if someone doesn't know what kind of car I am driving. Since no one pays for my payments, gas or insurance or repairs it matters not to me what they think about my ride
I am adding a pic of a similar car to my '58 only mine was Emerald Green and I had most of the chrome trim removed and cruiser skirts, a cabinet knob grill and candy apple red wheels.

not mine but I have the same set up. Kind of minimal and to the point.
I don't like spelled out names for car models that already have a number designation.
BMW wisely stuck to the script.

Hello,
I like the way you painted the "S" on your boxster. Can you tell me how you did that? Primarily how you got the letter off and how you reapplied it. I am assuming you removed it to paint it.
Thanks in advance for your help. It looks great and exactly what I was thinking of doing.
Kevin

If you are talking about the red "S" sailer22, I think those come from Cayenne S cars?
I bought a red "S" off ebay I think.

I love the clean look of a debadged boxster and that sleeper look when you pass by and people have no idea what kind of car just flew by! Makes a really appealing ass
Just hard to decide whether to debadge an S.
Another members debadged Boxster.
