    as I already wrote, I own since some months this car. At present I'm fixing some paint flaws and body details, including body stickers, as the car was delivered with the white sticker full kit.

    Here below how the car will be with stickers: thanks to f-chat member ISOT for this render.

    I will update the work in progress and I appreciate every tip. Restore errors finding is appreciated too.

    An easy thing to do is get a new surround by the ignition key- the whole surround should just unscrew. I had a milky white one for years on my 1978 911, and then realized the part can easily be bought from Porsche and replaced! I think I replaced that part on each 911 I have owned: 78, 87, 93 and now 89

    How does the 930 run? How many miles (or KM) does it have on it? Looks quite new

    Yes, you are right: I need that part, forgot to order it. It costs very few money. The car is restored, not first paint. The interior looks to be still original. No idea about the mileage, it marks 57k km (I'm going by memory) but who knows if they are real or not. Also the engine has been rebuilt. The car works very well everywhere.

    Nice! So you think the factory put similar stickers on when new?

    Yes, I have the Porsche Classiche official documents that shows the car was delivered in February 1979 with white turbo stickers (option code 394) and the paint to sample Diamant Sarah (option code 9999)
