The question remains about the safety of adding a projectile to the airbag. I had mine embroidered into a leather cover.

I saw one on my way to work this morning I like the silver emblem, it's a nice touch. The guy who owned it before me did it.

I agree. They look great, but there is a reason that the factory emblem is riveted in. If (hopefully never) the airbag deploys, I do not want a metal or plastic pointy projectile heading for my face, just my .02.

ahh true, but lots of **** happens in life you simply don't have control of.

the embroidered crest is not a good solution because it looks terrible.

Came with the Boxster S.

I ordered a new silver crest airbag from Sunset Imports. About $450 but it's slightly better than the Boxster S becuase the airbag is leather where the Boxster S isn't (don't know if it was an option).

Just stuck in on over the factory one...a little "plastic looking" (read cheesy) but all in all not bad for the price...for me it's worth it because it matches better with the red gauge rings...I do have the real deal on the hood
