Looks good, but the camera is really crooked in the first few pictures.

I see you re-did the stripes on the back again. They look to thin now. Did you cut them down or something? They are way to far inward and closer together now also. Other than that, the pictures look good.

Wow dj, your car must be the cleanest car around!!

BTW, didn't you just paint those calipers this past summer and add the PORSCHE decals? Also, didn't you just add a silver Boxster emblem? Did the decal and emblem not hold up during the winter?

Anyway, pictures look nice!

R U sure class was cancelled??

thx for the comments guys. :dance:
-i actually wasnt lying at all, just put the camera low to the ground and took the pics
-and as for the stripes...remember the peelinc clearcoat thread, that is the only way now that they will stay on, if they are too wide on the bottom it has nothing to hold on to, but soon they will be actually painted on permanently, they way i like them
-take the hardtop off? dont you see the snow? it snowed some more last night too damn it
- emblem on the trunk was actually a brushed a luminum decal, it held up fine, but when i got the car part of B was missing, so it always bothered me, so i got the new emblem, i like the stock color and like to switch up things from time to time.
and yes i did just recently put posche decals on calipers, but i really like the brembo ones better, i know i should hae gone w them rightaway, o well...decals actually held up fine, its just the preference
- and yes the class was cancelled, took me 2 hrs to get to downtown, and then nobody there..usually its nice when class is cncelled, but loosing 4 hrs there and back on travel is no fun

I told you to use a hair dryer to get them to curve around the inside of the tail lights(where they are too wide). You have to remove the tail lights to get them in there. I don't know what kind of decal material you you were using, but it obviously was not the right stuff. It should not peel or buble up. I can send you a sample of matalic silver if you like. I think that color looked better anyway.
