Genuine Porsche "Carrera" Side Stripe Set – Carrera RS Style Originally fitted to 1972–1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 — fits most 1970s–1980s Porsche 911 models

Few details in all of automotive history carry the weight of the Carrera RS 2.7 side stripe. The now legendary Carrera nameplate lettering was placed between the wheel arches in a contrasting color to the body paint, crossed by a wide stripe in the same color — a design that became a blueprint for the decades to come. The word Carrera was included in large lettering on the side of the car in a color that contrasted against the body paint, along with a stripe of the same color — a striking feature that ended up setting the standard for future models. This is the stripe that launched a legacy. The stripe that turned a homologation special into the most celebrated and collectible 911 ever built. And this Genuine Porsche replacement set lets you put it exactly where it belongs — on the side of your classic air-cooled 911.

The Most Legendary Stripe in Porsche History The signature Carrera side stripes could be ordered in contrasting colors, creating striking combinations that are now viewed as iconic. For many automobile enthusiasts, the RS 2.7 remains THE one and only 911 to this day — a car that defined what a focused, driver-dedicated Porsche could be, and whose visual identity has never been equaled. The Carrera side stripe is not just a decal. It is a piece of Porsche history that connects your classic 911 directly to one of the most valuable and celebrated sports cars ever produced.

Get Them While You Can These are Genuine Porsche factory decals for air-cooled 911 models that are now more than four decades old. As Porsche's stock of these stripes continues to diminish, they will become increasingly difficult — and eventually impossible — to source as new factory parts. Classic 911 owners and restorers who need these for a correct restoration will find them harder and harder to track down with each passing year. If you need them now or want a set on hand for the future — do not wait.

Warranty

Porsche Parts Warranty Information — Suncoast Porsche

Understanding your warranty coverage is important. Below is a complete overview of warranty terms for Genuine Porsche OEM parts, aftermarket parts, and closeout items purchased from Suncoast Porsche and SuncoastParts.com.

Warranty Coverage by Product Type

Genuine Porsche OEM Parts — 2-Year Warranty

All Genuine Porsche OEM parts purchased from Suncoast Porsche or SuncoastParts.com come with a 2-year, unlimited mileage, parts-only warranty beginning on the date of purchase.

If your parts are installed at an authorized Porsche Service Center, both parts and labor warranty coverage may apply if the part is deemed defective within the 2-year warranty period. Coverage varies by location — please check with your local Porsche dealer prior to installation to confirm their specific warranty participation, as each Porsche Center is independently owned and operated.

Important warranty notes for online purchases:

Labor, diagnostic, and installation fees are not covered when parts are purchased online from SuncoastParts.com or Suncoast Porsche, unless the parts are installed by an authorized Porsche Service Center
Warranty claims must be processed in person at an authorized Porsche Service Center
Warranty service is honored at any authorized Porsche dealer in the United States, however some dealers may decline warranty claims for parts purchased online or from another dealership — always verify with your local dealer before installation
If a warranty claim is approved and the part was not installed by a Porsche Service Center, installation of the replacement part remains the customer's responsibility
Suncoast Porsche and SuncoastParts.com are not liable for any diagnostic, labor, or installation fees charged by another Porsche Service Center

Aftermarket & Performance Parts

Warranty coverage for aftermarket and performance parts varies by manufacturer. Most carry a 1-year limited warranty. Contact us for specific warranty details on any aftermarket product. Please note that diagnostic time and labor costs for warranty replacements are not covered.

Take-Off & Closeout Parts

All take-off and closeout parts are sold as-is with no warranty and are not eligible for return. Pricing on these items reflects their as-is condition.

What This Warranty Does Not Cover

The following situations and conditions are explicitly excluded from warranty coverage:

Improper Installation or Misuse — Damage resulting from incorrect installation, negligence, unauthorized alteration, or accident. This includes any use in racing, competition, or motorsport applications
Lack of Proper Maintenance — Damage caused by failure to follow the vehicle's recommended Maintenance Schedule, or failure to use the correct fluids, fuel, oil, or lubricants as specified in the Owner's Manual. Proof of proper maintenance is the owner's responsibility — retain all service receipts in case questions arise
Consequential or Economic Losses — Towing fees, rental vehicles, loss of use, loss of time, inconvenience, or any other indirect economic losses
Vehicles Outside the USA & Canada — Parts installed on vehicles registered or primarily operated outside of the United States or Canada are not covered under this warranty

How to Obtain Warranty Service

Installed by an Authorized Porsche Dealer

If your parts were originally installed by an authorized Porsche dealer, warranty repairs may be performed by that same dealer or any other authorized Porsche Service Center in the United States. Please allow a reasonable timeframe for repairs after delivering your vehicle to the dealership.

Installed by an Independent Repair Shop

Please be aware: All warranty claims must be inspected, performed, and documented by factory-trained Porsche technicians at an authorized Porsche dealership. Work performed at an independent repair shop does not qualify for warranty consideration. If warranty coverage is a priority, we strongly recommend having your parts installed at an authorized Porsche Service Center.

Documentation Requirements for Warranty Claims

To process a warranty claim, the servicing Porsche dealer will require:

Your original sales receipt or order confirmation from SuncoastParts.com or Suncoast Porsche
A completed warranty certificate
Proof of proper vehicle maintenance history (if applicable)

Suncoast Porsche retains sales records on file for two years. If you need a copy of your receipt, contact us and we will provide it promptly.
