wingbadges?


I just noticed an ad in the latest Excellence magazine for www.wingbadges.com Is this an original Porsche idea? For some reason I believe it might be too much and it will not go with the Porsche look.

Upon first inspection I thought they were magnetic like so many multi-colored ribbons people have on their cars for various causes.



These are awful.

It's really a Ferrari thing - the prancing horse logo on the front fender, it's an option they call 'shields.'

I don't think it really has a place on the Porsche body. One on the front is enough.



IMO Russ.

Thinking about switching the two...if only I could get a new hood without any holes punched into it :-(

It's a Ferrari 'thing'. I believe they are called 'scuderia shields' and they are OEM optional equipment.I don't think they look particularly good on the Ferrari's I've seen around here, but I guess it's a matter of taste.Don't care for it at all on a Porsche.

Agree! One badge on the hood is enough otherwise it would make it look like a 'ferrari wannabe'. I know that BMW has been very big lately on badges, whereas the new M models have about 5 M badges all around

I think I have 8 Porsche crests in and on my car. Let's see: wheels = 4; front bonnet = 1; steering wheel = 1; headrests = 2. I need another 2 on the sides? No thanks. One on the top of my shifter ball would look cool though.


PORSCHE is spelled out: mats = 2; license plate frame = 1; rear window decal = 1. I'll bet I forgot someplace.


Yep. I definitely own a Porsche! [img]/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/dance.gif[/img]

Hey if you know your cars you know it's a Porsche a mile away. No more badges for this hombre. Besides I think it draws your eye to it and no the overall car's beauty.
