I think that’s true

I think the decals look great with no other trim on the side but with the chrome sill covers it looks a bit busy

But be better to see it outside

I approve.

Once you’ve removed the overriders of course. I’m not an animal.

Personally I’m liking Fuchs on a burgundy 911 and I couldn’t live with the American front lenses but the rest looks great.

- I think I agree about the Fuchs looking better Mike - as for the front lenses, I already have a pair of Euro lenses but when I trial-fitted them the curvature didn't match very well so will need some 'massaging' ...

Looks a treat

I'm siding with no scripts given the trim

No scripts and Fuchs for me. I think Fuchs are one of the highlights of an early 911!

Based on these new pictures, I like the scripts and the wheels, and I think it still looks period correct-ish. I think, if didn't have the scripts, and-or had Fuchs instead, it would look just the same as every other burgundy 911. I'm not saying thats a bad thing but if you lined them all up at a show, you would probably walk past them without looking and stop at the one that is a bit different.... IMHO :wink:
