The logo is such a pain to clean around, this is the biggest reason the butt of my car is naked.

I'm not sure, I think aesthetically that the Boxster script adds a little, although running naked might grow on me, should I try it.

Your friendly Porsche Dealer can install it for you, and my bet is he will do it free well even money on that one, 100 to 1 they done use a micrometer.

I now wonder if Porsche's CAD system or stylists are using US/English units?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Actual measurements on my 2001 non-S model (taken in inches, converted):
Rear edge to bottom of logo: 50.8 mm (2")
Sides to R/L edges of logo: 279.4 mm (11"). Of course, ending up centered.
I was surprised to see the measurements come out in whole inches, I expected some crazy fractions due to originally being in metric units. I now wonder if Porsche's CAD system or stylists are using US/English units?
No offense dude, but your diagram - in which you clearly put in some work - is confusing as **************** ! But, just going off the two locations where you typed 'Boxster', I'd say the lower one. Raised spoiler blocks the Boxster logo at eye level.
That being said, I'm curious why Porsche didn't move the logo up a little so it isn't blocked by the spoiler, just a couple of inches would do.
Whatever you do, do NOT get a "Boxster" decal for your spoiler, or I'll personally come to your house and force-feed you sashimi and rice.
I am one of those who feel the best place for the logo is in the trash can or on a wall. People who know cars will know what it is, those who don't will ask Boxster who makes that, Honda?

I will agree that it's a pain in the ass to keep clean. You could knit a scarf from all the towel threads clinging to the letters on mine.
Hi,
I too am torn between the
Clean Look
and Stock Appearance. I haven't found cleaning to be a problem, but it takes a little more time.
They are prone to cracking and if mine ever does, I'll probably buy a replacement, but keep it Off for a while.
BTW, that 100:1 Bet is a
Sucker Bet
! They might use a
Vernier Caliper
, but they'd have a heck of a time trying to get a
Micrometer
to do any Good...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99 (with both a
Digital
Vernier Caliper
and
a

Micrometer)
