Blacked out hood badge
I wanted to replace my hood badge with the blacked out version since all my lettering is black. I found this on AliExpress for $18.
I used the oem rubber washer and it fit tight
The oem rubber washer fits perfectly
There was a seller in the US on etsy that sold great quality logos that I have purchased wheel caps from but their account is gone.
I used the factory nuts because the one I purchased did not come with any and I didn’t feel like getting new ones from the dealer
They fit fine and made the grooves when twisting it on
I used a bug remover spray that works so great to clean off the dirt
Then a spray wax
My oem one has the same amount of gap, since the rubber fit perfectly it’s obviously the same size. It came with a double sided tape but I didn’t use that
I’m very happy with the look.
It matches the wheels and logos nicely

At a quick glance in certain light, it is just going to look like there's a hole in your hood.

Did mine yesterday and came out well. Easy to remove...I think the Porsche gasket/nuts are #8 metric and you'll need an extention to your rachet to get into the hood recess securely AND ensure you don't loose a nut inside the hood [that would drive me crazy rattling around]. Otherwise looks good so much I did my Carrera too later on! . Thanks for the instructions...helped a lot to guide me eventhough have done it before...a reminder is always nice to have.
