We had vinyl ones made for a Boxster club event, and it looked ok I thought, but I removed it after the event.

Interesting

I think the Ferrari badge lends itself to the fenders as it is less intricate. Porsche crest has a lot more details, so a bit too busy for my fenders imo. Plus from a side profile, our cars are very simple and clean looking. But just because I wouldn't do it, I really do like seeing it on other Boxsters. How boring would it be if we all decided to drive our cars stock. And there is really nothing wrong with that either, but there is always room for people who dream of what can be and not just accepting what things are. Variety of minds, tastes and styles makes it very interesting & fun to go to some of these meet ups.

So forget about popular opinion including mine, do what you think suits your style. I like to think if you don't like something, you can always change it back but at least give it try otherwise you'll never know. There is bound to be like minded people out there who likes what you do and may have already done it too.

Cheerios!

I think it looks just as bad on the ferrari as on the porsche.. Why stick something out of place on a car that prides itself on having perfect swooping lines?
