Yeah, that's not the reason in a pole barn (building).

I'd be willing to bet that either the permitting and/or the impact on any real-estate tax liability adjustment to the property in your area have something to do with this.

....or the building in question is in a "flood zone" and no permanent structure (as defined by having a solid or "concrete floor") can be built in that area.

Here is how I attached the PCA Roundel to my 992. Finding the best spacing for the two bolts in the horizontal vents (without drilling anything) and so that the Roundel sits squarely and securely on the vertical trim pieces is the only hard part about this. Surprisingly, there are not too many locations that meet both of these two qualifications.

New set of Stereo Integrity Tweeters, and SI TM8 woofers... the tweeters sound WAY better than stock (though will see if they sound a bit worse when I put the OEM grill back on), need to put the inner piece of the doors back on to see how the TM8's will sound (they sound great with door off!). Also purchased 3 SI M3 midranges, but need to 3D print some collars and then see if they are too deep given the shallow depth of the midrange seal in the door.

All you need to do now . . . is to put your national PCA Roundel on the correct (Left) side. Did you recalculate your F/R weight distribution change for the car? I’ve heard (many people say) that one should be concerned, having so many Roundels might negatively impact the car’s polar moment of inertia.

Based on it no doubt, it's the Porsche Owner's Club badge (more universal to me than the PCA one), the Le Mans one is just a remembrance of my 1970 presence to witness the 917s victory, the Alaska Region badge is an antique as PCA mandated a new standardized look (we did manage to retain the prancing moose instead of a horse on the logo).

As to weight distribution, you're quite right and reason I mentioned that you have to balance it out as if not even with RAS your vehicle will have a tendency to accelerated lopsidedly
