Default 986 Rear Badge

I've always wondered, do any boxster owners buy 968 rear badges and change the numbers around to make it 986, and put them on the car?

Not to upset anyone, but they all seem to be mounted differently. On one, the loops in the 9 and 6 are horizontal. On another, the loops are angled, but the same. On another and on the "real" 968 the loops on the 9 and the 6 don't match. Which is "right" which is "wrong." Though, I wonder if that white 968 has been redone - the spacing seems off.

Pardon my simplistic photoshop work. But, what do you think of the 986 in this location? I always thought the full "BOXSTER" took up too much space of the small trunk lid and seemed like it was in the wrong place.
