You have to use a specific glue, or tape, or something.
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.

I really like the S logo on the Carrera 4S especially on the Black C4S, it's subtle and elegant.
Just wondering what people think of painting the S Red...
My understanding is that it is either glued or stuck on like double sided tape. You run floss under the logo and pull it off.
I've been planning on buying the whole logo and painting the "Carrera" black and the "S" red, like so:
Riad,
The whole thing is "stuck" on. I was trying to find the thread that said that. It was Don's Misty, where he took off and put on several logos before finally deciding on a simple "Porsche". Hey Don, where are you?
Mines's AS, and the "Carrera 4" logo blends in. In seal grey it would be the titanium "S" that blends in.
I think the black logo with the red "S" would look great on AS.
I may have to get that done.
So just slide floss under and it comes off?
And to reapply, any special kind of double side tape?
Would it be clear where it goes, i.e. centered?

Boy, I wish I could find that thread. Anyway, once it's off, you can't just stick it back on. You have to use a specific glue, or tape, or something. That's why I was planning to just get a new logo, paint that, and stick that on. The new one will come with whatever will make it stick on.
I think I'll order the logo and the 'S'... I'll paint the 'S' red and leave the Carrera 4 as is... then if I'm not crazy about that I'll paint the Carrera 4 black... I like the idea of the contrast but I don't want it to be too much.
What if I use a nail gun and shoot 10 penny common nails into the logo to keep it on.
Just a thought for you do-it-yourselfer's.
Hi All,
I have a little experience w/ this w/ a Targa logo. I took off the black one after a new Targa emblem came in on order. I painted the new Targa emblem Silver, and took off the black Targa emblem.
The black came off w/ the floss technique.
CraigThe excess glue came off w/ wax and rubbing. The new one (painted silver) had a glue-like backing, and went on very easily. I had to polish and rebuff the area where rubbing dulled the paint, but otherwise, it looked beautiful on a Basalt Black car.
1. Order new logo from dealer parts department, or other source, because it comes with the right new adhesive protected by tape. Also if you damage the old logo taking it off, you are covered.
2. Get some spray paint, or send it to Eric for a specific color...I used a buddy at the dealership who painted my "S" Guards Red to match brakes. It looked great on Lapis Blue.
3. Take dental floss and slide it behind the current logo with a sawing motion.
4. Clean off excess glue with wax. Pull the protective tape off the new, painted logo and stick it in place! It's cake.
Concerning my above post, spray painting the logo yourself would be easy with a can of spray paint from a local hardware. Do that painting far from your car!
I just purchased an 'S' from the Pelican website and will be having it painted red to match my calipers. On the C4S, the 'S' is notched to fit beside the '4' so there is no issue with placing it wrong or not centered.
This comment will get many a Porsche enthusiast all fired up. "Blasphemy" will be the word of choice used by many. Try Pelican Parts. There are many Porsche suppliers, so you shop around for competitive pricing.

just got my new S the other day from bumper plugs. just stick it on -- it comes with adhesive. now i have that burning itch to do the center console and batwing in body dolor. it's just money right?
I bought all new lettering at the P. dealer when I did the turbo decklid and cf oversized wing mod to my C4S.
Cost about $140,- and had the S painted red at body shop ($40,-) with thriple clear coat (that way the paint won't start coming off at the edges when I have compound detailing done in the future).
The stock lettering is hollow so the double sided tape doesn't stick out too much.
This makes the lettering sit quite a bit more flush than the aftermarket logo's I've seen and no waiting, the P. dealer has them in stock
.
Honestly it makes a huge difference, it just pops... a lot!
Good luck!
Sid.
