Might replace "911" with a red GTS...

I thought the rear bumper just looked too crowded with all the extra script, so I did the model delete on my '18 GTS. I figured anyone that didn't know it was a 911, wouldn't know or care what it was even if the model were displayed.

Two lines of badging on the rear of your car is one too many. Do you really want it to look like a cluttered advertisement? I still contemplate taking the Porsche off as well. Is there anyone out there who doesn't know what it is?

Fashion changes with time I guess I remember time when in Europe majority of de-badged BMWs were lesser models. As for me, I really do not care what the badge is over there in the back, as long as there is the engine I like over there in the back

Went with more subtle badge to match exterior paint option. Pricey but my build.

IMO, “Porsche” on the back is perfect. 911 Carrera GTS ect just makes it messy.

Not sure if I'm cross-eyed or if your "911" badge is crooked.

All of the cars look great! Appreciate the input - most likely will go with 911 GTS. First need to get the car!

I removed my '911 Carrera GTS' and have left the P O R S C H E where it was for the time being. Thinking about removing completely as the modded picture shows on top.. I'd also like to possibly add a PORSCHE sticker

Dealer said they have a template to position new badging - recommended I ordered new lettering to ensure adhesive is strong.

The letters are also available as fridge magnets! A must for all Porsche owners who also owns a fridge!

I thought “Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS” was a bit verbose to have across the rear, so just have “P O R S C H E”. I also deleted the “GTS” side stickers as I was going for more of a stealthy build.

Those who know 991s will see that a) it’s a GTS because of the CLs and b) it’s 4WD due to the light bar.
