Why a custom decal?

Hello friends,

We recently posted a diagram pointing out the differences in each VIN decal (compliance decal, door jam sticker). With this information it can be seen why a custom decal is required for a Concours d’Élégance restoration.

Please see ” Decal Anatomy” page.

Take care,
Kerry

Shot of Schnapps in the morning.

Hello fellow Porsche Windmills!

There has been some forum discussion on the accuracy of our fonts/decals, especially the VIN punch holes. Below are some better pictures of a finished decal. Please note that Porsche decals are made by technicians, not the Porsche design department. Because of this the decal design can have variations. This may happen when the Stuttgart factory worker doesn’t get his shot of Schnapps in the morning!

So… typesetting, font style and VIN placement vary year to year, country to country and model to model. Often there are missing punch holes in original stickers. We will accurately copy any irregularities in your decal if an original photo can be provided. If there is no photo, we will use another same-year and same -country decal as the basis for your decal. We will send a PDF  proof for you to confirm before printing.

Keep your stick on the ice!

Note: Our machine can be set to match different hole patterns. For example, 6 high X 4 wide, or 5 high X 4 wide ( as seen below) etc.
