I can relate to 3 out of 4......Fiat?....

Dave

Just some goofy variations of Poorsche914's original design.

I had my Violet in a car show last weekend.
Sadly a judge said that to me.....
NO....not a Fiat, or a Triumph

The Origin of 914

How about...

it's in the middle


To answer the most frequent question at the gas station and car shows.

Added some color for you.

Yes, another good one. For certain the badge design is Poorsche914's, but I just wanted to have the badge also show the fun side of the car. Anyway, here are a couple more ...

Put "THOUSANDS OF JACK STANDS CAN'T BE WRONG" on it, and you'll have my vote.

How about "keeping jack stand manufactures busy since 1970".

Or - "Have you seen my longs?"

Dave,

I really like your twist on my design... especially the 914 World placement.
Now we just need to come up with the saying for the upper text.

Instead of a saying what about making it simple "PORSCHE".

Dave

Dave, go back and read Andy's first post.

Sorry, your right, licensing issues.

Dave

I actually do kind of like the intended version. Sorry I don't have photo shop.

or maybe "no car too rusty?

NICE work on the designs!

These are cool.
Looks like a few more days until the submission deadline.

6 days left till the vote.

I like this one!

Simple, to the point, classic.

with that agree...

With the agree about the agree

I think this one fits perfect.

p.s mikey914 sent you emails for parts...

Simple and clean

Looks too much like the old 914 club badge.

What is the fixation on the Club badge....if anyone has one on there car they will see a yellowed POS.......Move On or go to Club......sheeesh..

something like this,with the "gears".

Anything gold with red is going to resemble the old badge a bit. Three things have to be present: a "world" reference, the name and a 914 reference.

Jack stands, tools, and silly captions disrespect the car and make it a clown car.

Put it on chrome and change the red to another color. Will it still be like the old design?

The old one was a knockoff of the Porsche badges. These are 3", there is only so much that can be done and get the message across.

Has to be a simple design; remember where it will be made. Quality ain't that great. Look close at Porsche and Cities badges....letters are not aligned, outlines are not smooth.

The busier the design the crappier the quality. Talking stamped badged here not stickers.

double post edited

Without being disrespectful to you (hopefully), I do think your latest designs resemble too closely the old 914 Club badge. I think if you change some of the details, it would benefit your design and keep it from looking too much like a copy cat.

Also, just wondering what others think of using "Vereinsmitglied" ... does it make sense to use that on a badge representing an English language site? I might be overthinking it ...

No offense taken. That design is a "badge" version of what Andy had put up.

This version here is possible. The car graphic would have to have to be modified. A badge is a mold with hills and valleys. The valleys get painted; the hills are polished off and show gold or chrome.

The car graphic would need to be modified to accommodate the badge approach. You will loose a lot of the detail. Can be done. ...that's why a silhouette works really well here.

I sort of agree about the Member vs. Verens......

That is sweet!

The gear outline resembles the old one; that probably gives off the vibe too.

The gear outline can be anything. I personally like the more familiar gears with more shorter teeth.

....unless we go a more modern route.....for a modern "world":

edit: looks like someone else found this place:

hmmmm...we can use the Porsche word. ...mum's the word eh?

They show these as magnetic. Wouldn't it be too easy to steal?

Dave

The design we are working with is actually mechanically attached, so theft should not be an issue.

This one has my vote. We'll thought out, simple... a bit evocative of the old badge, but in a good way. (History is a good thing. Don't try to rewrite it. Embrace it!!)

As it's been said already, it's just a copy of the 914 club design. I have one of those. It's been on my car for years ... I really like it but I don't need to put a second one on my car. The other thing that bothers me about that design: is there a good reason to have "914" twice on the badge?

Ok so lets get away from the red on gold....
