It is what it is.
I don't like Ferrari LaFerrari, but it's wrong for me to just re-badge it as "F50"

You could opt for an "AROD" vanity plate? Maybe "BRAUN" if from WI? Or "JUICER" if unaffiliated. Or if your state permits 8 characters "C19H28O2" -- or a Euro vanity plate?

I think putting Roadster on would be cool.

Nice, with reference to a great movie too
I'm actually think about going nude for a summer, the 986 for a summer.

The bottom of the B in Boxster was broken on mine and I saw pictures of other owners with the same portion broken.
I prefer smooth lines for my wash mitt.
I de-badged the rear emblem. (my other driver is de-badged also.
I must admit, the adhesive tape material was stronger than most car emblems.
I don't think anyone has a problem determining what kind of car it is.

M&M, go sit in the corner and think about what you've done.
Why do your posts turn into dots?

It's not a Spyder - so forget that. If you really feel the need to put an emblem on the trunk - go with either boxster, 986 or Porsche.

Keep it Boxster. It's a really nice and actually pretty bloody clever name for the car.
