The emblem will be a matter of taste.
Try tacking it on in various positions and find what looks best - for you.
Randy,
I hadn't noticed the polished 'cutters'
before...nice.
Tell me that's not a phonetic 'Lifes a bit*h'

I am the PO of Brent's GT. The emblems were the factory GTS. They are simply individual adhesive backed plastic letters and numbers in black. You could spray them any color before installing. You must also "play" with them first to see what look you like best regarding tilt and placement. For the s4 owners, you can probably get something very similar at a hardware store in the mailbox section.

Hey jim,

That is a factory S4/GT wing on there. I would guess that you could easily bolt one onto your car. It attaches to the hatch and that part is the same on all 928s. You might also consider the factory GTS wing, that one is paintable.

Steve, I have to have that wing!!! It's not an S4 wing. What is it? And why did you pull the rear S spoiler off of the deck? <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" />

hello all,

I might have a solution for those who want a custom look or 3D lettering.
In my business I use a laser to both cut and engrave on different materials.
I am currently making my own "928 S4" in brushed gold. The material I use is an ABS core 1/16" thick with a metallic finish. Solid colors are also possible.

I'll post some pictures if there is an interest

Chucker,Jim


The wing is a strosek style sold by <a href="http://www.nrauto.com" target="_blank">www.nrauto.com</a> I think it’s made by west wing. The S spoiler is off because I like the look of the S4. Besides two spoilers on the back of a car is a little too tacky for me. Plan on spending $200 <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" /> for the rear molding, plastic connectors and screws, you can not use the exciting rear window molding once you remove the S spoiler and that does not include welding the holes for the side winglet. Let me know if you need more info.
