Correct Size Speedster Hood Emblem

Troy SloanTroy Sloan Supporting Member
I don't have a handle on my Vintage Speedster and I want to place an emblem on the hood. I want it to look exactly like the one in the attached photo. There are several versions available and I don't want to end up with the wrong one. To me, this one looks exactly like the emblem on a Boxster, but the Boxster has a much flatter hood than my Speedster and I'm not sure it will lay flat, or that it can be bent to match the curve in my hood (can it be bent with out damage?). When speaking to Russ, at FiberSteel, it sounded like the emblem that is listed as the correct (original) emblem is smaller than the one in this picture. Does anyone know exactly what I should order or have any more information or suggestions? Thank you.

I used a 901 badge for mine. The early 911s had a slight curve to the hood, and it mounted right up with no modification at all.
The rubber bit was kind of hard to pull up around the edges, but I pulled it with the back edge of a pocket knife and it fit like a champ. Took about 20 minutes, but it's way worth it.
