I like it, and am leaving it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P27GLN Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) On 5/5/2023 at 10:57 AM, MAC99V said: Long shot, but going to ask anyway......The Boxster is having a machine polish and ceramic coating applied on Monday and with the work going in, considering removing the rear text and going plain 'PORSCHE'. Done a quick search and it appears that the text badge from our local dealer doesn't come with a template. Has anyone made one that could be mailed over for me to print off so i can give it to my detailer for fitting?... Many thanks, Mark.

It was held in a sort of template just using masking tape. I guess my pain guy put the masking tape on the bootlid then removed the lettering. In my case the letters are chrome and I dont want chrome on my green car. So for now I have no letters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattman42 Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Resprayed black before fitting Card template helps keep everything spaced equally and straight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey P Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Looked better before if you ask me - But obviously my view doesn't count on here because I drive a Cayman, so a moot point 😂 To be fair, it looks like you have done a great job of the fitting, and spraying the letters black makes them blend in nicely 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxer boy Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 I know thus far the posts show there’s no wrong way and what ever floats each owners boat . However when I see ( in traffic queues etc ) the wrong badging esp crocked poorly aligned 320d or ML 320 in the wrong place then immediately springs in my mind it’s been ar*e ended / accident damaged . I can’t be the only one ? As for “ naked “ it’s tells me the repairer ( cost cutting in the quote ) could be even bothered to source a replacement. I know badge deletion is a no cost option too but it does open up in my mind the above . Sorry to rain on a parade but I others must think this too ?

Menoporsche Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 They might, but Boxster owners know it's extremely common to snap a bit off the B and then choose to debadge it. Crocked - there's no excuse. And as for a perfectly centred "Boxster" and then an S hanging off to the right - they probably have different tyre brands on the same axle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a big fan of this lettering on the 987 as the boot shape etc doesnt suit it, but everyone is different Edited October 29, 2023 by Bike Loon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phazed Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Same here. The lettering running straight doesn’t suit the car. When I did my daughters one, I did them in a slight curve following the line of the boot lip, which in my opinion looked much better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Sport Edition" was a special they did in 2008 i think - had a subtle body kit and a couple of other bits added - may have been a run-out model before the Gen 2 was introduced, but not 100% on that.
