Yeah, your spacing looks a little off. Perhaps lower and more to the left with the "S".

if you are considering a red S and want a smaller one it just so happens that the red S that Suncoast sells is slightly smaller than the original silver S. Not sure why that is.

the 911 should be canted clockwise at a much greater angle than is shown in your pictures. that positioning looks all wrong in fact.

Me neither (not that anyone asked!). It looks to me like some kind of an add-on (which it is). But I can understand why some folks like it.
