Hi Steve - This isn't a great picture; it was my "first day home" picture. But you get the idea with the badging. One thing to check into -- I think the positioning of the "Porsche" is different if you have the "Carrera T" on the car. I can take some measurements for you, but I ordered mine without the "Carrera T" logo, and I think the "Porsche" is just slightly lower. I love having less badging ... it makes me super impressed when someone asks "Is that a Carrera T?" at the gas station.

Thanks, would you please check? The top of my ‘S’ of PORSCHE is 1-7/8” from the lower edge of the spoiler. Note that the other letters are NOT equidistant from the spoiler, so be sure to measure from the ‘S’, please.

Hi, The local dealer had them as the winter set. Not sure.

BTW, I am based in Alberta, so, the plate is Alberta... Pretty close to Alaska:-)



Snow is still her.. but beautiful blue skies.

I am thinking about debadging the “911 Carrera T” off the rear. I know the PORSCHE lettering will be slightly higher but I can live with it.

Sorry if this uploads as a huge picture; I'm on my phone. But it looks closer to 2 3/8" on my car. It may look fine to remove the "Carrera T" badging, or it may bug you. Either way, it's probably worth a try.

Hey, that’s a pretty miniscule difference, just 1/2”. Very encouraging! I’ll play around with it visually, but definitely won’t break out the floss until I’m sure. Thanks for the quick and very helpful feedback.

Personally, I've ordered mine with all the badging and then planning on taking off the "Carrera T" as this will leave the "P O R S C H E " right in between the tail lights. I think it visually looks more balanced this way. Then there's room below (or above) for the "911T".

My 2 cents CND / 1.5 cents USD.

If you are removing Carrera T, my feeling is you absolutely need to bring the P O R S C H E down. It looks so good when done right... I might do this myself.
