Need monochrome replacement hood emblem

[800v]

I just installed a monochrome emblem too -- looks really great with my volcano grey 2020 taycan turbo (with silver mission-e wheels, white PSCB brakes, and clear side blinkers).

It was still a bit nerve wrecking for me to install the emblem -- why do they use these "speed nuts" instead of a regular nut? and there is the risk to lose the nut in-between the hood.. I did make some photos of the install, maybe it helps someone

Keep the hood horizontal so you won't lose the speed nuts when they come off..

I could reuse the rubber backing for the new emblem. You might be able to reuse the speed nuts but in my case the rubber was completely dried out and broke off (and I got new OEM speed nuts from Amazon -- a bit pricey though; there must be a better way to get these..).
Don't overtighten the nuts as they press into the rubber.

I like the new one in chrome-black (from ebay) more than the OEM one as it is a bit more 3d, quite nice (the monochrome 2012 panamera crest that I also have is much less nice and plasticky).

I also see there is a new OEM "turbonite" crest .. that may look good with Volcano Grey as well.

@800v That's a very extensive overview of what you did. Well done and enjoy!

That's mine. I think the company that made them is not selling them.
