Thanks Michael!

IMO, if you don't count RS wheels, these are best looking Porsche OEM wheels by far.

So you can buy those numbers one by one?

I have 285s in the rear with an H&R/M030 setup and no clearance problems.

Any probems removing the badges? Was there any fading outline from UV exposure? Details, details... I personally think that's a nice mod.

PEACE,

Zamirz (Amir),

Those are the optional factory upgrade "cloisonné crest caps" that came with this car since new. I have had them on several sets of wheels so far now. Luv e'm. Thanks for asking & thanks for the compliment.

Finn & Eric,

I just ordered up a factory 968 badge and flipped the 6, then trimmed the 8 into a 3. Bingo = 993.

Cool 'eh?

My car did show a bit of a phantom "Carrera" script after removing the original badge. However, I am a screw ball, and seem to be the only one to notice it.

So get out your dental floss & pop that original unit off!
