Hello, I am a new member 914er. I am an old 911 guy turning 914. I always liked the 914. So I got one to try it out. Also this is the first posting I have ever done anywhere. So here goes. I am interested in the Negative "porsche" stripes on the side of the cars. I have always liked those stripes...but then, I was a 5 or 10 yr old kid and thought they were wonderful. Has anyone ever seen black stripes on black car? Perhaps wouldn't be so showy. has anyone ever seen any color on a black car? Are the stripes still approved of these days? Also, If I get some, I would like to find some that truly look factory or at least dealer. So any leads? A lot of words, I will be shorter next time. Scott Allen |

Scott, Mine is a 75 and came with “factory” (dealer installed) negative ID stripes. I believe the “positive” stripes were earlier and the bolder “negative” strips were later. Exact switchover date (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I’ve never thought about 'um on a black car before. Obviously, both the stripe and the word -----PORSCHE----- would be glossy. Matte finish negative stipes on a black car could look really cool. Very subtle. On a black car, the negative stripes might look better. You could always just peel ‘um off later. With my 75, I missed out on chrome bumpers. I think the bolder stripe helps tie in the big 75-76 bumpers. They had to do somthin’. Tom Attached image(s) |
