Default GT3 RS badge

Hi,
I'm upgrading my 04 996 MkII GT3 to RS specs and then like to put the "GT3 RS" badge on the rear deck lid.

Does anyone know where I could buy a "GT3 RS" badge?

Thanks!
Andrew.

I notice you have gt3 rs shocks on your shopping list. I wouldn't bother with the dampers and springs, although the other suspension changes are of benefit. Much better dampers available aftermarket...

I don't really get it!! Do you plan on doing a full RS clone or just cosmetics?? Why is it in your sig., you wrote 997RS wing????

By the sound of things, your GT3 is now stock (no seats, rollbar, suspension etc.). Why don't you start slowly and and wonder about badges later!!

I doubt the 997 suspension and wing will fit a 996.

if you are indeed SERIOULY considering doing a REAL RS, just buy thusly's car. you will not even come close to an RS for less than $150k.

Wasn't there a popular line in the movie - "we don't need no stinking badges?"

So far, I have resisted temptation taking the car to the track, and the car is "resting" for a lucky person.

Is this car for sale and if it is what exactly is it?

Default smelling rice....

Mr. C4,
Point taken but aren't you implying then that any mods are a no no and that it would degrade the car to a rice burner?

I wouldn't put the "badge" on the car until it was up to RS specs.

I love my GT3 and want to eek out all its potential.

Sorry if I offended.

Andrew.
