Everyone I've talked to says that it doesn't really look good on it, but I've seen it on 3 other 944s in the past 3 months; this cannot be a coincidence!
Does anyone else have/had a 944 that has/had a front emblem like this??




Is this from the factory or did someone simply put it on? Personally, I don't think it's that bad-looking, but it does seem a bit, out of place?

Not from factory. It belongs to the rear.

I have one on the rear:

Front one is not from factory and is even not glued on straight.

So I should probably remove it then..I'm wondering why I've seen it on so man y other 944s around here?

Voith

Great minds think alike

The question is, how to remove it without damaging the paint?

Heat gun set to 150C and box cutter do wonders.

Congrats for new ride

I've used a clothes iron. No 'overspray'. Worked really well.

Try floss.

Gentle heat gun, dental floss and patience is your friend.

I have seen several 944's over the years with the emblem in the front. In states where a front license plate was not required, often times the dealer would not install a front plate bracket when the car was prepped. Often times the dealer would take it upon themselves to grab an emblem from the service department and install it on the front bumper to cover the holes left by the lack of a front plate bracket. The last 944 that I bought and sold was Copenhagen Blue with silver lettering and emblems. It had the emblem on the front bumper. IT came from a state where a front plate was never issued.
