Thanks! The crest was customised in the US by Carrera East aka Jim. There are several topics on Rennlist (also on this forum) showing what he made. Google Carreraeast and you will find him. He also does steering wheel crests
Your crest looks great. I would like to do the same, but I've found Jim to be lacking in communication, so I can only admire the crests of those lucky souls whom Jim has deemed worthy.

For what it is worth, Jim has made me 7 (frunk, rear, steering wheel/airbag, & wheel center caps) for my car and they are all perfect.
He never replied to my PM from months ago. I just assumed he wasn't interested in doing anymore. Never tried again and found a badge somewhere else. Definitely not as special as one of his, but oh well.

Sorry to hear that; however, if someone is really intent on getting one try to reach him this way: jyurgealitis@gmail.com
I also had to send a few messages before I got an answer but it was worth the effort. BTW the mail adddress I used (and to which Jim replied) was carreraeast AT gmail.com
Installed the PORSCHE LED projectors today, OEM Porsche. Done is 10 minutes, including unboxing :-)
Very easy, you only have to know where top pry out the existing lights. I made a few pictures ao showing that:
@F1SML8R what you say may be true but for the price I am happy for what I got and I don't think for me the price difference is worth the quality difference, after all it is just a light logo you see when you open the door. The ad pics is accurate
I have these cheap ones on my car. The quality seems fine to me, and they look great. I am ordering some more for my other car.

Thanks for posting this pic, I ordered these a couple days ago and this might save me some frustration!
So if you pull up directly next to another Porsche at valet, and are parked right next to the car, and you both open your doors at the same time, you'll be laughed out of the place because your lights are a little dimmer once the door opens.

i bought the $12 ones.
i removed one of the original ones an tested resistance on it. it uses a replaceable bulb with a filament and read 135 ohms.
the $12 one is a bit dimmer and uses LEDs and it read 0.5 ohms.
installed them anyway.
here's what it looks like directly under the fluorescent lights on the one side:
and in the relative dark of the garage on the other side:
they're kinda neat but i'm not sure if and/or how long i'll leave these on.
