Default Stolen "3.8" sign from wing

Hello it appears that the side 3.8 badges underneath the rear spoiler have been stolen from my car, as my car was involved in a minor accident I saw that the badges weren't on. I thought they fell off but I could not find them on the road. Then I noticed that both of them were popped off with no glue residue left. So is there any way I can get apart number and avoid such an occurrence happening again?

I looked quickly on the Suncoast site, but did not see anything. Give Suncoast Porsche or Sunset Porsche a call. GL.

I'm certainly no expert, looking at the PET it looks like its 99151256580 / 99151256680 for the left and right side. The tape/adhesive is 99151256780.
Yikes, discounted $186 each for the badge and $36 for the tape. That's a GT3 tax on top of the regular Porsche tax.

Disclaimer: I dont have a GT3 and am not a parts professional. Check with your dealer for confirmation.

The level to which some sorry excuse for a human being will stoop, sometimes amazes me! Whoever stole those "3.8" pieces is simply a POS! I'm sorry...this kind of thing just bothers the heck out of me. The utter disregard for someone's hard-earned property is astounding! GL with the replacements OP

+1 on the above. Hopefully what goes around, comes around. Good luck finding replacements.
