"new car"... advise (pics)
We picked up a 2011 C4S in platinum silver and we love it. We had a light exterior detailed today. In preparation for the detail, I had the "Carrera 4S" temporarily removed.
So I was thinking, I kinda like it clean without the emblems.
Or my other options:
1. "P O R S C H E" (991)
2. "911"
3. Put back "Carrera 4S"
Thoughts?

Option #1 - Most everyone will know its a Porsche.
Option #2 - I like the "911" emblem look, but again most will know it is a 911.
Option #3 - Most will know it is a C4 since it has the red reflective bar in the back, but most will mot know it is an "S" by looking at the tailpipes.
Therefore "Carrera 4S" would be my choice for a re-badge. However, the clean look is very nice and I would lean in that direction.
Ultimately, it's what makes you happy and not anyone else. Enjoy!

I thought about a red "S" in "Carrera 4S" and it looks cool but it might be a bit too busy for me.
I think based on feedback and what I'm leaning towards, it's #3 which means I'll put the original "Carrera 4S" emblems back on
But I must admit, no emblems looks pretty clean too

I like the Clean look.
I had a friend in college who had a regular 280zx...he bought and put on all the "280ZX Turbo" badges.
If I remember correctly, last summer in Europe most cars did not have the,...let me show everyone what model I'm driving badging.
I think it's more an American thing.

I'd like to see someone go retro with that center reflector. The right size clear sticker and maybe find a customizer to install some LED's to come on with the brake lights...
