Default Went ahead and added the red "S" today.




Was going back and forth on this, then posted a Thread that got a lot of good input and pictures from you guys. Really like the way it looks and how it ties into the red tail lights. RJ

I like it. Probably picked up a few horsepower too.

I get it, not for everybody. The cool thing is, if I ever want to go back to the silver, it's a $18 Amazon fix. RJ

I like the look as you know. My only suggestion would be to replace the “Carrera” with a black emblem. I think the aluminum colored emblem washes out against the body color.

Hadn't thought of that. I will go with this for a bit and see what I think. But that is a good idea. RJ

That would look good too. Someone suggested changing the Carrera to black and keeping the red S. Many possible combo's and you can change back to stock for next to nothing.

You could Plast-Dip the Carrera in black and see if you like it. I did it to my 2010 Boxster and loved it. It is easy to put on and to remove.

Yes, that would look cool. Best thing about this, whether a 911 or Boxster or any model, easy to do it yourself or buy the item, and inexpensive. And if you find out it doesn't work for you, it's an easy fix back or to something else. RJ
