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.

Curious to know why many C2's have the "Carrera" logo located at the back of the car in black when the exterior color of the car is dark -- especially since the logo is so nice. I've got a black logo on an Arctic Silver body, but I've seen it many times when there is black lettering on Lapis Blue, Black and Forest Green exteriors. You can barely see the logo. How does Porsche coordinate this.
On a separate, but related note, instead of having the "Carrera" logo at the back, some C2's have "911" or nothing at all. What does this signify.
Thoughts?
Regards.
Ive never seen the carrera logo in any color other than black (silver on C4s and turbo)
You can delete the logo from the back if you wish. In which case you can choose whatever you want. It just signifies personal preference.
Actually Bins, I've seen a fair number (not as many as black but still a fair number) in silver...against a dark exterior color. But many logo's are also black against a dark exterior color.
Regards.
Silver does look much nicer on the darker colors though. Mine is midnight blue and the black logo does not do the car any justice.
Has anyone ever painted the logo, (using what). I suppose silver touch up paint might work.
Yep, I broke half my emblem off when drying the car once and replaced it with the titanium (silver) one:

This is exactly what I was saying. Thanks for corroborating this guys!!
How strange to put the logo in a dark (light) color when the exteriro color of the car is dark (light). Doesn't do any justice.
I think painting is a feasible option, probably using the same techniques as you would with respect to the "Painting 'Porsche' on Calipers" thread.
If anybody has thoughts on why Porsche color coordinates this way, please let us know.
Regards.
We're doing painted logos if interested, at BumperPlugs.com.
Done quite a few - some are body color for more subtle, others are contrast.
Email me for details.
I made an observation, the 2002 Carrera logos are placed lower on the decklid, where the reflector now is on the C4S.
As far as the color of the logo, I think the titanium colored ones are for Carrera 4.
"Mine's silver on Lapis Blue, stock"
That's cause the titanium is stock on C4, Box S, and Turbo. It's an easy $20 ish change if anyone wants to do it. I actually saw 911 in titanium on a black one and wanted to do it so bad, but thought "911" was not something I wanted to display so prominently after the attacks.
Many of you have indicated you have dark/dark combinations. Others have indicated that their contrasts have worked well (ie silver "Carrera" logo on dark color).
But nobody has yet informed why the dark/dark combinations persist.
My curiosity on why Porsche does this remains piqued.
Regards.
Vik...I think Porsche chooses a badge color for a particular model and then uses it on all colors of that particular model. I feel that for what you pay for a Porsche one of the (inexpensive) options should be special color name badge. Like me, who wants a silver "Carrera 4" badge on an Arctic Silver C4. Maybe the way to go is order the delete option and have Eric (the plug guy) paint you one in the color of your choice. I wonder If Porsche would allow that considering how **** they are about how they present their cars..
I prefer the black script on dark colors. The effect is very subtle. IMHO silver draws attention away from the lines of the car.
I also like black script on light colored cars!
Guess I just like black script.

Painting them would be impossible in that removal will break the plastic. Better just to order one and it isn't expensive. I had black logo changed to silver and looks great. Regards. mike
Ocean blue with silver logo... I thought the original black logo was a bit mismatched for the dark color.
I think it would be one of those personal taste things.
FYI... all the part numbers and descriptions...
