Forget the decal. Your beautiful Porsche looks better without it.
I like the wheel though

Wow, that looks... really good. I'm surprised I'm saying that because I rarely say that about this sort of thing.
Don't know about your blue corner lamps though...

i didnt think that would look half decent untill i actually photoshopped it, but im still deciding. theres a guy on ebay, i just checked, selling those for 26 bux
...about the corners, bulbs are out and they are color matched( from some angles it looks off couse of lighting), i bought smoked OEM ones, but well...they dont go w anything on my car, so i returned them

The wheels look great, but the decal is a little on the rice side for my tastes.
Are you taking your wheels someplace to be done, or doing them yourself?

The wheels look nice, the decal, not so much...
Not a fan of decals on anything but a 73RS

I wouldn't say 'rice'... that Porsche decal is the same type they put on the old 911s, makes me think of the RS. Call a 911RS 'rice', and you're in for a lot of people not liking you!
I think it looks good, but I also think it looks good without the decal.

You wouldn't say rice, but I would... as I said, it was in my opinion The car might not be rice, but the decal certainly can be on it's own.
I just have never liked any decal with the make/model of the car on it. If the car is a track car or sponsored, then I can understand it. But on a daily driven car all it says to me is that the owner can either not remember what type of car they have, or they think their car is so important that they need to display to everyone around them what type of vehicle they are driving.
All in all it's a personal choice, but he asked for others opinions so I offered mine as well.
