Toby;

I am in favour of no badge, on my 997TT I ordered the badge delete option.

In Germany for example it is rare to see a badge on any car whether a Volvo a Merc or a Porsche and I find that style appealing. Those that know know and forget about the rest.

You may put the badge on the garage wall, on a tool box etc.,

Im in favour of no badge as it is a "one of a kind" creation by you and for you.

If not, how about just "GT".

It is always fun to be a little mysterious too!

Thanks for the opinions so far

I remembered a fairly unsubtle bit of badging I witnessed on a Swiss guy's 550hp 993 on an RS Tuning visit - I have a smaller version of this sticker but probably a little OTT ?

If it was mine it would either have no badge at all (like mine), or a small RS Tuning badge. That said it is yours and if you fancy the 911 GT badge you should try it for a while. You can always take it off.
Its not as if any of us wouldn't fancy your car in our garages badge or not.

Nothing wrong with badging on a car....your car is probably more enthusiastically owned than most Gt2!

I would personally switch the stick on badge to a "GT 911".....that would add a certain intrigue without the clueless thinking it was a wannabe.

How about a GT4 badge? If not then running t badge-less is the best option.

I normally loath badge upgrades (like BMW "M" logos on a knackered 318) but your car has earned the right to wear a "911 GT". The red will look good on the blue - go for it.
