bandit_287 Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 I’ve just ordered up the P O R S C H E and Boxster badge to fit to the boot lid of my 981. Could a kind person please measure up where these need to be stuck for me? Approx width/height on the boot lid. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTSMarky Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Might be worth speaking to the body shop as they should have a template you may be able to copy/borrow.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will do. Could you do me a favour when you’ve got time, measure where they’re stuck on your boot lid? If I get an approximate place I’m sure I can make something up.

Quibble Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Not at home at the moment (or I'd measure) but..... where are you?? Assuming you're vaguely near any member on here get a large, flat sheet of cardboard and use it to make a template directly from their car! Simples.

bandit_287 Posted September 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Im near Bristol. There’s no desperate rush for the measurements as the badges won’t arrive until at least the weekend I reckon. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon61 Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 Took these today in case they help. You'd clearly need to centre the 'Boxster' badge without the S. And note (as you probably already know) the PORSCHE lettering goes on a curve, although not as curved as the bottom lip of the bootlid, as you can see from the measurements below (where it appears my E is about 2mm higher than my P!).

GTSMarky Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 My 1965 TR4a has pre drilled holes in the bonnet and boot for the badges - forward thinking in the 60’s ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxie Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 I'm off to the badlands of Essex this morning for a reunion (grew up there). I've had to modify my car to ensure I can travel freely around .. Similar to the other thread about a dodgy Boxster for sale on Ebay, I just noticed the reflections. Quite common to get the photographer in, but just noticed the gf on her way out for a run 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(it's the perfect place to show off your new badge 😀 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
