Black rear emblem options

I want to swap out my chrome for black, matte or gloss, I'm open, does anyone know if a factory option? I know they have them for the Cayenne.

I will suggest you to plasti dip them instead. You don't have to remove the emblems at all to do it. It is the cheapest option to have black emblems and if you're bored with the black, you can just peel it off and it goes back to chrome.

You have to do multiple of light coating for it to look good. I did about 10 light spray on mine before I found it acceptable. If plastidip is out of the option, you can purchase painted emblems from bumperplug. They use factory Porsche paint code to paint those emblem. I did purchase a red turbo emblem through them.

akshon is infamous around these parts
If you are looking for the PORSCHE sign in black, suncoast sells oem ones.

The panamera sign is not available in black so its got to get painted. I have a turbo so just used a oem black 944 turbo emblem under the porsche lettering.

Yeah, Bumperplugs is a little overzealous with that pricing... I think I will have new ones painted, I'm afraid I won't get all to match if I get the OEM black and try to mix it with a painted Panamera badge.

Lots and lots of very light coats with the plastidip. Hit it from different angles.

RE: PlastiDip, ignore all "wet coat" instruction? How about with the glossifier?
