First Post! I recently purchased a 2012 991S in GT Silver with Carrera Classic II wheels as my first Porsche. It was a long time coming and I'm very excited to own such a beautifully engineered vehicle. On to my question:
My car has the full "Porsche 911 Carrera S" badging on the back and I'm considering changing it up a bit. Leaning toward simply "911S" or "Porsche 911S". I'm considering painting the badge in Agate Gray to contrast against the GT Silver paint instead of the chrome standard. I'm wondering 2 things:
1) Is the inner color of my Carrera Classic II wheels Agate Gray?
2) Has anyone seen a rear badge in Agate on GT Silver?
May end up sticking with the stock chrome but I think this could look nice.
Hi, I have a 2013 991S and I have the factory fitted 911 in lieu of the Porsche normal badging. I think it really doesn't matter what you do, the car is still a ripper. Stay safe mate.
To be honest, the 997 in my opinion had it perfect as far as scale and location.
I removed the "911 Carrera S" and simply left it like that for a while. I actually liked it and felt the big P O R S C H E was enough. Then started to get the what is it? A 911? A Boxter? One of those new fangled Macans?
So then I just went with a nice clean "911" below the Porsche. Then I got the "Hey, is that the new Turbo?" Is that an S or not? Funny, but ok.
So ultimately I just went with this. Who knows, maybe I'll change it up again some time soon.
Very nice! I haven't gotten my car back yet but I decided on leaving Porsche and simply doing 911S below. I also stuck with the stock chrome instead painted.
Cool. You'll love the car. Remember, the cars (991) Carreras that come from the factory with model delete, ie: P O R S C H E 9 1 1 The 911 emblem they use is a larger version than the 911 that is used in the back like you see on mine. Post pics when you get her.
