White 997
Is it legal to do that to such a great looking car?

Not on a standard Carrera in my opinion. Something with a wide body and / or spoiler maybe. But I think it might make a Carrera look like a green bean.

It all depends on the vinyl manufacturer, different colours etc.

You would have to obtain a colour sample swatch of each vinyl manufacturer and compare it to the original colour on the gt3rs.

100's out there ! thumbup

The 997 Rs green is just called Porsche Gruen and the code is 2d8. It's not actually called viper green but everyone just knows it as that
hope that helps

Why that pic of all... banghead you bd lol.

To the O/P - I went for as close as i could get to viper green. (IMO) If you want anymore info please feel free to PM me and ill help in anyway i can. thumbup


Also, my wrap changes under diferent light. Under bright lights, its gets a lot more green. under very soft light, or at night it looks more pale, however in street lights it looks a very tasty green. One thing i will say is that if your keeping the car and have the means i would do it properly and re-spray the whole car. Not as cost effective or reversable but you get the best result. If i was going to keep the car forever (may do but..GT2's ... Mmmmmm hehe) i'd have re-sprayed, cant beat it for perfect results.


However, on a sunny day, it looks like this smileand im quite happy with it! - here's the un-eddited photo. If you wish to see it under different lights i have photo's and will happily post them here or send them too you. (or if your local you can come by and see it in the flesh)

Good luck with whatever you decide. - oh and Thrash -GREEN rocks!!! wink
