996.1 Aero Kit & Carrera Badge

My aero-kitted 996.1 came without an engine cover badge. Most of the time I like it like that but sometimes it looks a little bland.

I've got hold of a Carrera script vinyl sticker off eBay so I can see if I like the look with the badge in place.

Would someone with an aero kit and a Carrera badge be kind enough to measure the distance from the bottom of the engine cover to the bottom of the badge so I can get an idea of the correct placement?

I'd also like to know the length of the Carrera badge as I'm not sure how close the sticker is to the correct size.

Cheers
 
Hi Jimb007

I'm sure my 2001 badge is original and hasn't been repaired or replaced at any time.
Carrera badge is 260mm from end to end and 30mm up from bottom of the engine cover. There is 20mm between Carrera and 4

Dave - that's perfect. Thanks for taking the time to measure.

The vinyl badge is temporary.

Here is the result - with or without?

With for me looks better
 
Imho looks loads better with a badge.
 
Definitely with. Mine came without and I replaced it.
 
I like the look with the badge and now have the real thing

Cheers everyone
