Makes me giggle that Porsche was likely the first one customizing their own car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I've seen some truly hideous custom 914's, but tasteful mods are OK IMHO.
I'm not about to put a 1.8 back in my 914 to make it factory correct. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

I think the search function might turn up the a pattern. Also try the AA web site or an old physical catalog. I had one when I did mine. Drilled holes and everything. Of course it's a '76 with early chrome bumpers and warts removed so it will never be stock again. Gave the rubber bumpers away.

I have installed a 3.0L SC engine in my 914 and I want to add a Porsche badge to the front hood. How far up from the front edge of the hood do I mount the badge, understanding the obvious that is must be centered as well?



I have a decal of the hood crest I will send to you, just PM me your address.

Different topic but I Always loved the turn signal shape on the 914-8. I wish they were available even as repro parts. The line blends in so much better with the top fender line.
