3.4 & 3.6 emblem ideas **
 
Using a variety of factory emblem packages, I've come
up with 3.4 and 3.6 emblems -

First, what I started with:
http://www.rennstore.com/content/00/...ent/255868.vmg

Then the 3.4:

And the 3.6 - used the '9' in '911' upside-down:

A problem - what to use for the 'point' aka the dot in 3.4/3.6????
Ideas?

Does the "Turbo 3.6" badge from late 1993 have the decimal in it?

Other options include the 1970-71 style decal:

Or Jim's 1972-77 style badge reproduction:

I don't have an early 911, or one with the stock (non-tail) rear grill - so I need either a decal or a 'stick on' type of letter system.
Its a '79 SC with a 1993 RS America tail. Now, the late 1993 Turbo 36 may work, but like you said, whuzzabout the dot?

Are there any emblems that have a "dot"?
It is all that is needed to have a slick emblem for a 3.4 or 3.6.......

Assistance por favor,

The 'turbo 3.6' logo does have the dot as this is what I did

Todd -

THX for the pic & idea.
P.S. Is your car parked in an igloo? ;-)

Cut a pencil eraser (or something similar...head of brass tack?) to the right height and then spray with black paint.

Or drip a small dot of black paint on wax paper, let dry and stick.

Excellent idea, Rick!
Check out what the eraser dot and 3.6 emblem project now looks like:

Very cool. Are they on there permanently?

Craig 930 RS 04-07-2004 09:43 AM

Used the adhesive from the factory - the backing that came with the letters and #s. Used a removable 'household glue' for the dot - man that sucker is SOLID when painted with BB-Q black paint!

heh heh, did you try placing slightly closer to the 3. Like in Todd's pic? (Just curious)

Craig 930 RS 04-07-2004 10:09 AM

Nah, I'm too symmetrical ;-)
