Be warned please check G&M Handbook and under bonnet labels carefully!
They even offer an "Oily one" for under the bonnet!

This poses an interesting question.
I have a spare bonnet that I can swap when I have the stone chips repaired. It would be totally honest to fix a new label on my spare bonnet. This means there is a legitimate reason for supplying a label that Porsche are unable/unwilling to supply?
The options made when the car is ordered only appear on this paper sticker and the purchase receipt. The purchase receipt is often "lost" when it gets filed with tax return papers. This leaves a paper sticker as the only lasting documentation of the specification????
It seems a wise precaution to ensure it remains with the vehicle!
Surely, the only real identification are the VIN details stamped on the chassis?

Easy enough to do yourself if you have the one in the service book. Scan it and output on the relevant sized label.
Label always needs to be looked at carefully along with looking for a matt finish on the paint, under the hood and in the luggage compartment under the carpet.
As previously noted, buyer beware.

Sorry not wanting to state the obvious,but a copy label on a non original bonnet is not OK,especially on a concours or mint classic car,if one is applied it is purchased and applied to deceive,the font is incorrect under scrutiny.A replacement panel is that whatever the reason.Hence the post,its not just the bonnet though (again obviously) its the application of said label to a clean G&M handbook,whats to stop a car then having both so potentially clocked and crashed.
As I said please be mindful.

Really? I dont think a replacement panel and a copy VIL label is honest in reality.I have a spare bonnet that I can swap when I have the stone chips repaired.
