Turbo X50 Emblem

Here's the new emblem... the trick is figuring out how to get it made. Anyone have any connections?

Very nice - I'd like one - maybe do the "X" in black?

Why advertise you have more power than they think, always downplay the power, cheesy move.

never heard of a sleeper. Why advertise what you got, it's nicer to sneak up on someone and show them a suprise.

Is that from the factory? Does not look like something Porsche would do. Looks cheap and cheesy. Whats happening?....next thing you know...the dealers will be putting their "metal/plastic" dealership names on your bumpers.

Honestly, If I saw the emblem on the car, I would think its tacky and out of character.

Here Goes:

"Twin Turbo" (rear lid)
"All Wheel Drive" (sides)
"Intercooled" (rear lid)
"415 hp (or 444/457hp)" on fender - (a la' Z06 vette)

tacky. But to each their own, there's a 996 turbo out here with "twin intercooler" on the decklid.
