Can this factory Porsche emblem be repaired?
When I found it the emblem slipped out of my hand in excitement & a chip broke off when it hit the garage floor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) Can anybody repair it?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Tom Attached image(s)

This might sound strange, but I work on a lot of electric guitars, & when I need to fix a chip in black paint, I often use fingernail polish. It's laquer, it's self-leveling, and it's easy to drop-fill. I don't know how well it would work on something that is out in the weather a lot, but I thought I'd mention it.

Mark, Great suggestion filling with fingernail black polish. My 914 came with this hidden emblem & It will never be mounted on the hood. I'll find a special place somewhere inside the 914. I know this is obsessive, but it was stashed by someone named Heinz or ?? at the factory. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Tom, we are all:wacko: |
