968 rear badge
 
Does anyone know whether the 968 badge is the same lettering height as the 968cs badge?

I've ordered a 968cs badge to modify for the rear of my Boxster but I'm unsure if the numbers are large enough.

I have no clue, but I replaced my rear badge with "Spyder". I get a few good comments.

Yea, that's like a regular 911 putting on a GT3 badge. Not cool by my standards

No disrespect to you Boxster Spyder owners...trust me, nobody will mistake an 03 S for that machine. I'm not trying to be a Boxster Spyder, I just wanted something new and different. I also liked the script and style. Also, the only thing that has ever bothered me about the Boxster is the cutesy name that Porsche decided to bestow on our beloved sports car.

It's your car. People may think my black and yellow interior is offensive. *shrug*

People were putting Spyder on the rear of 986's before the 987 Spyder was introduced.

The Boxster Spyder doesn't have 'rights' to the Spyder term just like it doesn't have rights to PORSCHE lettering on the doors. The 987 BS is a special edition 987 S. Calling it a Boxster Spyder was very redundant in my opinion, all Boxsters are Spyders but not all Spyders are Boxsters.
