What would you do??????
My 78 wide body doesn't have anything on the rear deck lid. Should I put a 911SC emblem, or leave it without? What would you do????

How about a Chevy Bow Tie?
 Seriously though, I voted for two categories; Leave it plain (it looks clean) and Have another Rum and Coke  Beautiful car by the way!

I like the clean look.
My car doesn't even have the hood crest. I feel no need to tell people my car is a Porsche. If they can't identify a 911, they don't care. |

Gene,
Keep it the way it is! Looks great. By the way, do you haveboth engine gas shock (to hold the lid up) in the same hinge or one on both? By the look of your lid allignment, I'd say you have one on each. If that isn't the case please let me know. I have both on one hinge and seems to continuously prevent from aligning the lid properly. Thanks, Matt BTW, I love the Steelers emblem you embossed on your cat's helmet!

cleaner is better, but I think I accidentally clicked the "stock SC emblem" box.

Debadged is cool. I've debadged our Boxster, Audi A4 and 911. Very Euro. It's we Americans who started the trend toward "3.6 liter DOHC VVTi auto a/c 6-disc changer Bluetooth" on the trunklid. That and leaving the Monroney glued to the inside of the rear window until it fades to nothing aftere 80,000 miles.

There was a factory delete code for the rear badges. Mine came without from the factory. Check your codes on the trunk lid if they are still there. Leave it naked!

I like to see something there. I like the thought of the modern 911 in chrome badge on the black.

Black looks too good to clutter-up. Sometimes less is more...........
Nice car btw
