Rear Badging - What did you do?
#31
Best I have seen. Thought about removing either "Porsche" or "911" but then it makes everything off center. Looks like I will have to remove it all and put what I want back on.
#32
Best option IMO
#33
Thanks a lot! Just a piece of advice :You better order new badges online. The "Carrera" part breaks very easily. On top of it, putting new 3M adhesive at the back is difficult as letters are real thin. As far as the "P O R S C H E" badge is concerned, putting it back in place with all letters perfectly aligned and spaced is a challenge.

Like it the best and your license plate!

Is it just me, I'm liking the 997 more and more when I see pics side by side.............I'm leaning to cancelling my 12 991 black and holding on to my beloved 09 997 and possibly waiting a bit. Dunno why, I'm not as gung ho about new body as I was a few days ago........
I ordered Techart Type 1 spoiler to mount on rear engine compartment for a subtle more aggressive look when stopped, and the upper rear windshield valence for the subtle compliment to the spoiler. I have the C2S 19" wheels on my 997, powder coated black, and I'm not yet convinced new body style is an improvement.
Hating the look of the sunroof..............Is it just me?

Does it come with any type of placement guide ?
Also is the 'Carrera S' in the same position ... would I get the same effect if I just removed the 'PORSCHE' or is the Carrera S part up a little higher (more in the middle).
TIA

How did you get the lettering so perfect ... not only is it perfectly located in the up and down position but the side to side as well ...

I used Blue painter's tape that I applied on the car to take exact measurements and align letters

nice. wonder how "911 S" would look in black on a white car or silver on a black car

As it came from the factory,
P O R S C H E
911 Carrera S
yes you could tell it's an S from the front lip, the red brakes, the lower stance, etc.
you can justify any combination or deletion
I don't find it to be too crowded.
I'm more in love with the rest of the car to be too concerned with the badge

Selected the model delete option and am just getting PORSCHE. Way easier than removing and reapplying letters. That being said, I love the Carrera S on the white car. Contrary to the opinion of robfxlr, the more I see the back end of the 991, the more I like it, and I have an 09 C4S. Of course, I'm keeping the 997, so when the 991 arrives I'll have two nice asses in my garage.
