Default New emblem for aero kit

Well, after letting the paint cure I put a full clear bra on the front and replaced the "missing badge" on the rear deck.

Thanks Suncoast!

Isn't the "S" supposed to be a bit under the 4? Looks good. Just wondering.
Nice Duc BTW.

This is why I love Porsche people. Such astute observers.

Yes the "S" usually gets under the "4" but for some reason Porsche made the red "S" smaller so that doesnt really work, so I just spaced everything else out evenly. I really disliked the original silver badge on my GT silver paint, so I went with the traditional black script. The red "S" matches the red calipers, and my red Ducati 998 Biposto.

Nice, but don't think the placement is correct for the 4S.

I used painters tape on my old lid and just took measurements and put the tape on the new lid.

The red S is a LOT smaller than the silver one, although the pics don't show it. Trust me when I say trying to put the 4 closer to the S does not look good as with the standard lettering.
