just painting up my replica fibre glass panal. i used mesh and fitted it with a glue gun i think it will add aggresion.
My original badge panal was spot welded on and dented to fk, i had to drill a untold number of holes to get it off.

Lucky to find replacement bolt on in black - unmarked too.
But i think its too good for day to day stone chips
so got this fibre glass turbo panal. I like the look of them and it will
save my steel one for best.

does anyone else have interchangable nose cones? or am i the sportiest

Very cool man, Nice black.. I had to do a double take at first
though the car looks great. You should investigate a hard non-waxable
clear thats out there... if your driven in the traffic.. your gonna get chips
soon enough.

thanks man. The badge panal is very vunrable to chips, thats why i got this fibre glass one,
that i can just rub down and respray when it gets scaby and save the decent steel one shown on car for best.

Yea If your exspecting to be on gravel roads and the like thats
a good solution. How are you gonna finish the fiberglass one.
Is it going to be buffed a little bit. You could hand polish.

oh yes this photo shows it freshly sprayed i got it cureing away, and will leave it for a couple of weeks . then take fine wet and dry paper
- get it real smooth and polish it up, stick an adhesive porsche badge on. I dont really like clear coat so ill just wax it up,

I have a professional mould for a 931 badge panel with the 4 slots. It is a fibarglass mould I bought from a guy online who bought it from a bodykit maker who went out of business. Just collects dust.
