In the beginning, before i had kids, i might had washed and waxed my cars enough erode of the gold plating.
I used to see these for sale everwhere and i bought one used for probably $45 or 50 bucks shipped to my house just last year. I can't find them on-line. I was wondering if they were discontinued by Porsche. Heck i could purchase a gold one or take mine and have it silver plated for less than 180....maybe.
thanks for the info guys.. I just can't see paying dealer price.
Wow Nicole, you are up early for CA folk. Is it 6 am ?

i guess i should have kept my last one. I always let things go with the cars i have sold.
I might go to a jewelry store and ask them how much they would charge to silver plate an emblem. I can't imagine it being astronomical.
I need a front DS fog light lens, i can't see paying 200 bucks for it either. I guess i am used to 911 prices.

On my 94 GTS hood badge it is gold except for the Stutgart shield which is silver. At the last car show I was at I noticed all the other original Porsches in the same year model range had the same silver shield on the gold badge.

I would think that buying a homely looking colored one off eBay, stripping it, spraying it with some Testor's silver, and sealing it would be far less than $180 and more fun

90GT emblem, pretty sure it's original. Looks identical to the one listed on Pelican (and PET) as 901.559.210.20:

93GTS emblem. Car's been repainted so not sure it's original, but it looks like only the center was gold and the rest was/is silver (?)
Discussion on what you get if you buy a new one these days:

Jagger is placed on with a sticker. I want an emblem close to the oem size and mounting style. I appreciate the find, but not exactly what i am looking for...
thanks for posting your pictures. I do like the GT style.

Only use the Porsche gasket - the OEM ones are to small and need to be stretched.

Does it have the "Do It Yourself" manual transmission, or the superior "Fully Equipped by Porsche" Automatic Transmission?
