PS - if you dip you don't remove the badge, just mask around and spray away. Get 4-5 coats in there. You can use a toothpick to clean around the lettering.
You can also buy a black badge from Porsche or their vendors. Use dental floss to cut the adhesive in the factory badge, clean any residue with goo gone, spray with alcohol to clean, and then stick on the replacement badge. Make sure you line things up though! Some masking tape to "box" the stock badge before removal will help immensely.
Never use a permanent adhesive like epoxy. 3M double sided tape or equivalent is fine - but even better is using the adhesive already included in the replacement badge!

I'm going badge-less right now after replacing my stock boot-lid with a GT2 one. Have to take my time with measurements if I decide to put a new badge on.

I did the exact same on a white car, and the area masked off, where I peeled the excess dip off leaving the badge behind - as the car became dirty after a wash, it was like this square area became less dirty than the rest of the car, leaving a faint visible square around the badge. Figured it was just something that needed to be buffed or something.
Did I miss a step or something?

I like the "turbo"-badge most, that's how I refert to the car - it's a turbo, not a "911 turbo"!

My '07 Arctic Silver Turbo has the stock "Turbo" badge on the rear, and I like it that way. However, I've been thinking of going retro with the old "Turbo Carrera" badging just to personalize it a bit. Yes? No?

I am in the same quandary of whether to debadge my new turbo or to leave it stock with the chrome badging on the spoiler.
I debadged my 98 Carrera 2CS and liked the soft look. The car was a great discussion starter when someone would walk up and ask what year it was.
