I went to debadge my Boxster last week and the stupid glue had been on so long trying to remove 100% of the residue was impossible(even with Goo Gone). So I ordered a new badge from Sunset, $18,list is $23.36. I installed it and noticed something was different about it right after I installed it.....the new one I was sent had a matte finish to it,my original one has a glossy black finish. I told Phil @ Sunset that it was the rear trunk badge for a 99' and I thought he would order the right one. Does the part #986.559.237.00.70C(part # on the invoice) match up w/ a 99' emblem or was I sent the wrong part?
