Today at pomona I found a 914 emblem for my tail panel that I've been looking for. It's the gold color but it is a very light color gold (not quite silver but not vividly gold).
I really wanted to find a silver one to match the lettering on my grill well. In my reading today I read that the tail panel emblems were gold metal until 73 when they changed to plastic and in 76 they changed to the vinyl stickers. Indirectly that means that there ARE NO silver metal 914 emblems. Would that be correct? Anyone? Thanks, The Mikester |

As I recall, up to 73 models were gold. from 73 they were black. Yes the black would fade quickly. The early badges were pot metal, then went to injection molded plastic before becoming decals in 1976. It was the Porsche script on the engine lid that was silver (or gold up to end of 72).
