Installing isn't easy as you think. While some of members installed it without it, to do properly, you (or shop near you) will need a special Porsche emblem template kit.

Search this forum on "emblems" and see what is involved, and get some ideas at the same time.

I like

PORSCHE
911

like I have on mine. I find the whole lettering busy and unappealing. But now I'm even thinking of leaving only 911. I mean everyone knows it's a porsche anyway.

i'd like to see someone do just the model designation and no "P O R S C H E" because, as you said, everyone knows it's a porsche.

911 Carrera S

I just prefer PORSCHE on the back. Nothing else. 911 is too small and looks lost by itself.

I think the back looks way too cluttered. I'm going with a retro 911S badge on mine, no Porsche.

How'd you put the Carrera S ?
The previous owner of my 991 opted out of the model designation and I kinda wanted that.

My 991.2 has gloss black PORSCHE only. Thankfully the car was ordered with black emblems. (I'm 2nd owner)
