Default 993 Decklid Emblems - Got the Vendor Info

A few asked where the PO of my car got the 993 decklid emblem in the below picture. He emailed me yesterday and got them from Bumper Plugs. I think they are a site sponsor

http://bumperplugs.com/BPindex.html Go about half way down and click on emblems. Looks like they are $119.00 for the 993 emblems. Maybe a group buy is in order.

Shucks. They don't have a "Targa" logo.

I'm pretty sure the dealer sells these for under $50. When i was getting my emblem he showed me the screen and a "993" emblem showed. I didn't ask the price though :/ but I'm assuming it's around the same price as the carrera emblem, $32

Just get a 968 emblem, flip the 6 and cut the 8. For a quarter of the price above.

Yesterday I bought a "Carrera" emblem from Sunset; $21 shipped.

$119 for that "993" emblem

I just looked at the PET, they show a 911 logo, no 993. The 911 part number is 993 559 237 01 70C rally black.

There is no "993" logo that was ever made by Porsche.

They went up in price, when I got mine, it was like $70.

But I like it, & think they are cool!

I thought they had a 993 badge on one of the anniversary cars?

If there is enough interest, we can try to work this as a group buy.

If you are interested (no obligation) in a 993 emblem as shown, just email me with your full name and reference this Rennlist 993 Emblem thread. Once I can confirm pricing for the group, we'll let everyone know.

And yes, we can get you a 'targa' emblem too....

I like these.

Also, does anyone know what some other members used on their spoiler walls (the colored P crest that shows when the spoiler goes up)? Then it would say, "Porsche 993"

As mentioned, there isnt a 993 badge, these are the 968 ones trimmed down, part # 9445592200370C about $20 from your Porsche dealer, why not buy 5 for the same price and have ago yourself at modifying them? Im sure you would get it right before the 5th one!!

There is a targa badge for the 993, part # 9935592370470C, again about $20 from your dealer

A few months ago i bought the "911" badge..$25 if i remember.
Removed the old Carrera emblem and for the life of me could not get rid of the browm ghost image.
Not worth the sanding/repainting option. Just FYI to those attempting to do this. BTW went with a slate grey Carrera emblem...no miss policy as to where to lay it down.

Too funny - these are NOT 968 badges that are trimmed or cut. Full font, full sized numbers.

But if you want that shaved look, feel free.
