New for $32, bought one about 5 months ago. I would say put a new one on, for the amount of work to take the nose panel off and everything, you don't want to replace it anytime soon.

You have to take the nose panel off? Mine just popped right off. It has some black plastic molded around the pings.

Don't know about the early cars, but mine would require removal of the nose panel as well.

Hmmm, early car? This was off a 1988 944S. Lol. It did the same thing on my 924S. Mine have some black plastic piece over the pins that like... make it squeeze in.

I think you can still buy the replica badges for significantly less than the OE from aftermarket vendors. They're practically identical.

Note: not my car pictured...

I love the look of the silver emblems. The ones I have seen though are usually about $100.

I have an aged one now hanging on the wall in the garage. PM me with your email address and I'll try to snap a picture tonight.
