Eric the Plug Guy says that a standard black S is not available. I'm considering gloss black Boxster S.

Eric does emblems to match the body color also. I'm looking for subtle.

I'll check Pelican too.

Run naked.

No badge is best. IMHO.

i got some prices from him. most likely that's where i'll get it plus the bumper plug and keyhole plug.

If you want the gloss black it is part # 98755903701 and its around $60-70

Neither.

I used to run without a badge, but then started to think it looked too bare, and as if the car had body work done to it, but didn't have time to put the factory badge back on. So now, I've got the PORSCHE badge from the Panamera on mine. I love the look.

I like the Roadster emblem

But if you want the Boxster S in black why don't you just buy the silver version from Suncoast and a rattle can and paint it yourself prior to installation?
