Dave: yep, that's the one. I have no idea, but I assume anything other than gold was an added expense option. I've seen them on eBay from time to time (complete airbag), but 3 spoke airbags are expensive and I don't want to buy another if I can avoid it.

I wanted black and silver for both the airbag and hood crest to match my wheel center caps, but the custom hood crest is also expensive at $225.

My current wheel center caps (terrible picture):



And the custom hood crest from porschecrests@gmail.com:




I'd LOVE to have all of them in this monochrome style to match the black and white look of my car, but that may be a pipe dream for now. I was looking at OEM silver (with red) hood crests when my lady told me not to buy one, so she kind of gave away that I'm getting one for Christmas.

Finished up Day 3 of my SpecBoxster build. Started Monday night with an oil and trans fluid change, stripped the frunk & trunk and removed the rad fans and few other things yesterday, and took out most of the interior today. Glad most of this stuff doesn't have to go back in, as it's way easier to pull it all out than it is to reinstall it! Everything has gone to plan so far

It was 48 degrees in Central Illinois today. So, I had to drive it. Now, I have clean it, again. The picture is from a slightly warmer day!
