Red "S" Emblem
I have a 4S in Basalt Black and was considering changing my "S" to red. Does anyone have pics of theirs on black before and after? Also where is the best place to order it in red?

Thanks!

Funny I was thinking of changing my S on my C2S to a red one on the Back also.

I second your question.

I just purchased one off of eBay. It is like the old connected 4S on the 993. It is notched to sit on the 4.It is red and made out of urethane. About $34.

Love the 997, but the "S" doesn't really go with the look. Looks weird to me...maybe if I stare at it long enough it will grow on me!!

Slightly off topic - Flat black tail pipes would finish your look... just my opinion.

I roughed up and sanded the ss and used high temp paint (500 degree) with several coats.
