Debadged The Box

I was thinking of replacing it with 986S, but it looks so clean I think I might leave it . Tell me what you guys think.

From This

I'm torn. Looks good clean, but no "bragging rights" if you don't let everyone know its an "S" type. 986S would look cool. I would do the 986 in black and Keep the "S" in silver.

Looks nice de-badged but you probably want a badge... a badge says "Hey Jerk, Stop honking, Im NOT driving backwards on the 405 at 80mph."

I like the Brazilian look on the Box. Not sure I agree with the comment on "bragging rights", but that is a matter of opinion.

Well it looks really clean! I don't know, I'm one of the few that likes an emblem as long as there aren't two or three on the back for instance.

Take a look at the 986. You could always photoshop one on the same pic to give you an idea of how it would look.

the guys at Bluegrass are awesome! I like the de-badged look... if you ever start feeling like a standard boxster, just hit the gass accelerate and watch how much cooler your car stays via your third radiator...

If you are ever in the Lexington area hit me up we will go for a drive. There are a few other Boxster owners in this area too.

I think it looks better clean – am thinking of doing the same to mine. No worries about the bragging rights either. If someone knows the difference between the S and the base model, they will recognize the other cues. Not that it matters anyway…
