Default 991 GT3 PORSCHE EMBLEM PLACEMENT

Hey guys. I have a 991.1 GT3 I just got without emblems on the back and I want to replace them as it would have came from Porsche. The GT3 emblem comes from Porsche as it should mount, but the letting does not. I'm hoping someone would be cool enough to measure for me from the edge of the bumper below the vent to the top of the P, S and E so I can see if there should be a varying difference in distance and also the spacing between the letters. Thanks guys!

skip the P O R S C H E


go old school 997 GT3 script






If someone doesnt doesn't recognize my car as a
"P O R S C H E "
then I don't really care if they know wtf my car is (got rid of the dealer plate holder, BTW...LOL)


BTW I also took the PORSCHE lettering off my GT4 and went old school 897 GT4 script as well

so you should watch a video on youtube about the factory and look at the template, then make one, the template holds all the letters in position and places them, its hard to explain without seeing it, but that's how they are all mount perfectly in the same spot

Yeah just leaving the "GT3" from the OEM lettering was too small and not centered on bumper so I replaced with 997 GT3 script form sun coast


surprised no one jumped on my "old school 987 GT4 script" (obviously there was no 987 GT4) comment...
i used the 997 911 GTS - 4 script for suncoast again
dropped the "S" though 😏

leaving the original "GT4" was again too small and not centered
