Default Has Anyone Rebadged Their 991?

Today I removed my "991" badge and just left the "PORSCHE" badge. I am thinking about removing the PORSCHE badge and replace it with a "CARRERA S" badge.

If you have rebadged your 991, please post pics.

Thanks.

Always debadge my Porsches. This time however I left the Porsche name on the back only. I may still remove it. On the fence. Looks better without writing or too much writing on the rear in my humble opinion. Could take a pic tomorrow if I remember.

I have the Ruby Red paint and platinum wheels, so I was thinking to replace the PORSCHE emblem with a darker color (titanium) Carrera S emblem.

Here are a couple of pics for your reference. I initally took off all the factory lettering and went with Carrera S in 997 font. Did not like it as much as I thought I would after a couple of weeks and reverted to 991 factory font size with a twist.

I've seen a couple with no rear badge at all. Looks great, leaves you free to admire the bodywork, sends the message, "if you need to ask..."

Saw one, wish I had a pic, no badge and instead the Stuttgart coat of arms. Now that was cool!

I'm thinking Starfleet insignia for mine....

There must be some kind of way out of here.

A VW badge? In all seriousness, I like the full debadge. It seems more popular in Europe.

No difference in paint color. The car is only a few months old.

How are the badges held on? There must be holes afterward, correct?
