I've seen this everywhere, painted 1303RS decals and the sort. There are videos of 1303RS beetles drifting on YouTube.

I own a 1303, and I'm curious as to what the RS means? What has been changed...?

Yeah, I didn't think it was a special edition model.
May be something in Europe or America, a theme of bug based from a 1303...

I will do some more research!

i believe its just a sticker, relating to the gt3RS, since its in a smilar style... i toyed with something similar awhile ago too but better judgement ended up liking clean panels more 👍

It's not real, it's just a Porsche reference.

The RS stands for "Rennsport" which translates to "racing" or "Race Sport"

And as above it is used in in imitation of the RS badged porsches.
