Use a rag to quickly wipe away any excess paint that gets on the gold edges of each small box on the crest.

I wanted to replicate them by using a translucent paint to let the gold foil underneath to show through.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I thought I would post my efforts in order to help others with this issue. I couldn't find any solutions online to fit my needs. My car has the 3 spoke steering wheel and gold Porsche crest but all of the red plastics pieces had either been previously removed or fell out. I wanted to replicate them by using a translucent paint to let the gold foil underneath to show through. I went to the crafts store Michael's and found the paint in the picture. The label says it is used to replicate stained glass and I think it is a great match. Instead of painting on multiple, thin layers, I used a fine tipped brush to dabbed on small blobs of the paint. This added depth to it and replicates the original plastic pieces. Use a rag to quickly wipe away any excess paint that gets on the gold edges of each small box on the crest. First layer of paint Final product after 4 coats

POST 2Original post

That is most excellent! On mine, the red is fine but the black is worn.

Good to know. That might be easier for folks to find than the stuff I used.

POST 6Original post

Looks good! Always nice to do these little detail jobs, to keep the cars looking great as they age.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks. I think it looks even better in real life. If someone wants to use this paint, I'd be happy to send it your way for cost of shipping. It cost $8 for that little bottle at the store.

POST 10Original post

Thanks for posting. The crest on my '99 has the exact same problem. I'm planning on doing this when the weather warms a bit.
