Help Needed ! Colourblind man. Black or white script ??

Post by roadiesean »

On my Irish Green '67 912 ????

I thought Black, but Jonno, a fine chap of this parish reckons white.

Heres the soon to be recipient (now with lovely cardboard free sills !)

Red. Or nothing. Or whatever you want. The scripts aren't expensive and are easy to put on/remove. What about 2 colour? I have seen the earlier stripes with an option to have Porsche lettering in a different colour.

Buy two sets -

One side black, one side white

take pics, post and take votes

then remove the losing side and replace with the winning colour.

Simple !

Or toss a coin ! :-)

I change my mind. Black or white? Nope, silver like the one above.

Your car, your choice :)

If you are leaving the car Standard ( it does look pretty as is ) than leave it bare. If you are going for the 'Rod' look as Mike posted, than silver/grey looks good, but obviously someone else has done it and in mine opinion it needs the fuchs and the chrome trim delete etc etc. Or, get creative with Orange or Turquoise or Lime Green to do something different.

Get the Felt tip pens out, or cough, cough ask someone with a graphic file that can change colours and help visualise an idea :wink:
