The factory only puts one badge on their cars, and all of them are gold-plated. The only exception to this rule that I can think of was the Weissach cars from the early 1980's, which had a second stainless steel badge mounted on the dashboard. There were only 205 of these cars ever built. A stainless steel badge is also glued onto the intake manifold of the 2-valve 928's.
Some people paste a large badge sticker on the fenders, close to the "A" pillar and door. I think that this is a good look, though it imitates the Ferarri GTO and isn't in any way shape or form "pure". I'm pretty-much a purist.
-One thing that many 928 owners have done that I appreciate is the mounting of a Porsche crest on the ashtray door. You can buy a cheap key ring fob with a gold Porsche badge and grind off the top part that holds it to the leather fob, then glue it to the door. I haven't done that, but I think it is a nice touch.
N!
