y 997 is one of the ones with the number stamping under the hood crest, and the RUF hood logo didn't completely cover it, which I wasn't crazy about, but found a guy with a RUF hood crest and had him custom finish one for my R-Kompressor. I went with the silver base metal, RUF green and the GT silver color of my car for the logo in the checkered flag motif, and black for the other graphics - lions and Pfaffenhausen (where RUF is based out of). It's also a completely filled crest so although the recessed area with the textured metal looks open the whole surface of the crest is smooth.
Really happy with the result.

I thought I was going crazy! My car has the numbers imprinted into the hood along with a hood crest outline. The ruf badge covers it well but up close you can see it’s there. I have the badge you have also but it was driving me nuts. Thanks for the advice!

My son & I took the RUF to the Petit le Mans race at Road Atlanta this past Friday & Saturday. Superb weather, an excellent race with the right result (911 winning GTLM), and a lot of fun !
