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
Either way this is not a democracy - it’s your car

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.
Regards
Mike

- 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

I’m with Delano, now it is in the sun it all looks great just as it is.
Those wheels are great imho.

Even in this changing modern world there are still some basic universal truths.
Death comes to us all.
The sun rises in the east.
Andy has hot rods.
Let’s not confuse things further please.

Looks lovely and easy enough to swap back if you want.
