Leland,
why do you need a close up of a 4S badge?  Dan

Hmmmmm... that won't work... hmmmmm... I'm looking into a project.... a very crazy project....
Something to the tune of taking a pair of split grills from a 356, grafting them to a 911 decklid, and changing the old 911SC font to a more modern 911SC badge. I was thinnking a C4S might work, but upon closer inspection, I don't think it'll fit the bill. Maybe I should just carve my own mold and pour my own out of resin or something...

Or maybe even something along these lines????
I am just beginning to understand Photoshop... so I know this isn't impressive... but the idea is lodged in my head...

Backdate! Use the script from the 356 SC badge!

This any help? I like the idea of the split grill. Is it Harald (speedster94)in Germany that has done this?

A really bad example using an early 911 emblem and a 356 SC emblem.

Yup, you're right... Haralds car has the kidney bean grill thing goin' on.
Well, and here I was thinking I'd be original.  I'm thinking of picking up an extra decklid and tring to "split" the grill as shown in my crappy photoshop effort above.

If you really want to do it up, combine a "super" emblem from a 356 with the "carrera" emblem from a 996!

The "S" doesn't seem to be a problem... it's the "C" that is proving to be difficult to find.

hallo
Yes this is my Car ,it is metal and was a G-modell Hood ,here is a picture before it was painted . The Idea was to make the Car look like a original Speedster if you approach from the Back ,while Driving most People get only this Side to see anyway .With the normal Decklid it looks to much like a C2 Cab ( at least in my eyes ) .

hi Leland,
I have the "911" emblem from the Millenium edition 996 and the "S" from my original Carrera S emblem on the lid of my C2S. (see avatar). Porsche used a split grille on the 993 C2S lid as a bit of a tribute to the end of the air-cooled line. I have the 356 SC emblem sitting around somewhere, but it is the gold version. My memory of its size is hopefully represented in the right scale below.  max

That looks great Max!
BTW, it's good to see you on the board again, I was getting worried.

Max, you were able to duplicate EXACTLY what I had in my mind. The 996 script with a curvy SC behind it...
Very cool, thanks a load! I am thinking about polishing the badging to compliment the dark color of my car.
