I thought it made a world of difference in the look of the car. The black stands out better, and it just looks cleaner.

What kind of car is that? It's a Carrera S. But it looks like a 911. So who makes this one?

I like the 911. It avoids the above conversation.

Ordered the new emblem from Suncoast. Used painters tape and outlined the "Carrera" emblem to get it centered. The emblem peeled off relatively easily. I had read where some had to use dental floss to remove it, but mine didn't require it. Some excess glue/residue remained after I removed it, so I used some rubbing compound to gently take it off. After that, I polished the area.

With the painters tape still there, I centered the 911 emblem and stuck it on. Press for 1 minute and voila!

Looks nice, much cleaner look. With less letters, makes the car seem wider as well.
