The note from Allan that came back with my restored badge advised me not to use the Badge as the point you push on when shutting the hood. Doing that cracks the enamel over time.

I still have that old orange one. from a long hood 911 that the owner cleared away at the shop, when he did the short hood conversion. I got it from him at $20. In perfectgly nice condition at the current market price of those badge on ebay it makes more sense to restore.
