Debadged? Twin-Turbo Badge? on a GT2 Wing

I will probably be getting rid of my 996TT very soon but everytime I creep up behind the car I get a little annoyed at how empty the GT2 decklid looks without a badge. For some reason it just looks very odd. The debadged stock Turbo wing looks great.

Should I leave it debadged? I have a black aluminum Twin Turbo script badge that's been sitting in my garage for about a year. Been thinking about finding it and throwing it on. Or just throw on a stock Turbo script badge in black?

I know this isn't a big deal. This is stupid detail. Our threads should be talking about bigger turbos and techart parts but I just keep thinking about it.

What do you guys think?

I agree with your opinion that the GT2 lid looks odd without a badge. Maybe you could install the "turbo" badge, but leave off the "twin".

Your car is a "Porsche turbo" with a GT2 decklid, no such thing as a "Porsche twin turbo".
