Default Spare Wheel Center Emblem?

Hey folks,

I took a drive this afternoon and after pulling into the garage for a quick clean-up, I noticed a wheel center emblem was missing. Is there anyone who’s interested in selling a spare? Just looking for the emblem itself.


Thanks!
Joe

Good question. I’m interested in the color version.

I suggest you replace all of them or remove and re-glue them. If you don't, the rest of them will be gone within a short time as the glue has reached its end of life. OEM crests are something like $60 each if I remember correctly. I bought some cheap Chinese ones for a few bucks that are good from about 3 feet. If you're fastidious about things like that, go OEM.

Thanks Bill. That was my plan, and I’ve purchased a matching replacement for this wheel center from Suncoast Porsche. Being “fastidious,” my hope was to end up with one back-up wheel center to support my OCD tendencies.
