Full Version: All is not Gold in signia land
Doe anyone have a reliable source for a gold (early) 914-6 rear trunk panel badge?
Thanks

That might be a job for a 3-D Printer ?
Surprised these are hard to come by—thought both the long Euro "914-6 VW Porsche" and the North American "914-6" were both available.
A quick search suggests no—and I can't seem to find old ads for them either.

Can you make them like the early car's gold color?
No gold right now , only bare aluminum.

That one 914-6 emblem on eBay looks horrible. You'd think they'd clean it up before posting.
I bought the Euro version 3 years ago from Sierra Madre, first rate quality. They still list those, the US version says "Currently unavailable".
I just bought a NOS one from this forum $90 Lucky Find seeing as they are NLA

That's not a 914-6 badge ...
Hm. So what's fair market value for a nice NOS U.S. "914-6" badge?

Please don't tell me!
Some 15+ years ago i cut up a NOS (Euro) 914-6 badge to make a 916 badge.

Feel that pain, having modded some parts I wouldn't mod today.
It would be pretty simple to make a good duplicate. We are already doing the other 914 ones in gold silver and black.
Highly polished and finished if I could do 50 I could do them in the $35-40 range.

See my post above.
There is one for sale on eBay.
$200 should buy it.
They are not cheap.
One day to go.
It's at $189.
Go get it Man....

Wanna PM me a link I'd be happy to make these to help the community.
Came in a misc box of parts with my 6, something told me to move and look in the box before it got crushed. Also a NOS Carrera 3.0 badge in the box...

I’d be in !
If you are doing a group buy I would want one silver and one gold.
