When I bought my '99, it had black script and a letter was broken a bit so I ordered a matte silver script and used dental floss to carve the old one off.

I was thinking I'd replace the black original that gets lost on my Lapis Blue car but...can't quite bring myself to this "customization" yet!
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Going through receipts for my 1999 C2, I noticed the previous owner purchased the Carrera lettering Part #: 996-559-237-06-70C a few years after the car was delivered. There is no repair receipts though, so Im wondering if was blank upon delivery.
My car has this Carrera script on the rear lid and I've always thought that this was factory. Is it possible the 99 996 came with no rear script, unless optioned? On my window sticker, there is no mention of a delete or option.
It's not uncommon for owners to remove the rear emblems to give it a "logo delete" look. The last owner probably wanted to put it back to factory. Question - Did the previous owner attach it to the upper or lower section on the rear deck lid?
The final "a" on my script is also broken and I'm debating on deleting, replacing or going with the Millenium/40th "911" script.
IIRC, the 911 script is $$$ lol
I think I paid about $50 for my silver Carrera badge. I was thinking I'd replace the black original that gets lost on my Lapis Blue car but...can't quite bring myself to this "customization" yet!
The "C" was broken off when the previous owner had mine. He just took it off completely. I bought a silver badge recently to put back on. I think it will look good on my black car. I also paid around $50.
When I bought my '99, it had black script and a letter was broken a bit so I ordered a matte silver script and used dental floss to carve the old one off.
Anyone with a MK1 Carrera with a script color other than black? My car is dark blue and you can hardly see the Carrera name. I'm wondering if it would look better in silver. White might be too much.

My mk1 Ocean Blue Metallic had black script. I switched to silver and it looks much better to me. Sorry I don't have before and after pics from the same perspective, or the same lighting, but the pics below give a rough idea of the difference.
My old 2001 (mk1) Lapis Blue Carrera 4 came with silver "Carrera 4" script, not black like on the 2000, so I'm not sure what logic Porsche used to pick script color. After having the 2001 in silver, the 2000 never looked right to me in black, so I had to switch. Being a bit of an originality freak, I've saved the original black script.

At some point I'm going to remove this, and have it airbrushed to look similar. Couple of friends have their Hot Rod Nomad and 63 split window done in paint, pretty cool.
If by 'silver' you mean chrome, it's part #996559237104PU and seems to be available everywhere.

It looks like Sonnen is the the cheapest though.

Mine is Black on a Basalt black car...(If I wasn't tech challenged I'd post a pic)
Just replaced mine with a silver one, somehow one of the letters was cracked. It had a ton of polish and dried wax so I polished behind it and installed a new one,
I've wondered bout that too. I did remember seeing that you could order the new Camaro with "ghost stripes" which meant they were the same color as the car but in matte finish. Interesting indeed.
