This is how much trouble Porsche takes to remanufacture old emblems
The steady-handed folks at Porsche Classic are now willing to sell you a perfectly reproduced emblem for your early 911 or 356. The work that goes into creating this badge, it seems, is fairly extraordinary.
This epically scored mini film – seriously, it sounds like a Wagner-meets-Chant up in there – is like a Mr. Rodgers video short, but for car guys. Follow along as the Porsche crest goes from hunk of metal to shiny icon, with typical German precision.

I will say whenever I go to a classic car show, one of the first things I notice on any car is the condition of the emblem, chrome model script badge, etc. Nothing disappoints me more than to see a freshly painted car wearing tired chrome badges, a faded Cadillac crest, a cracked badge, etc. That little detail is what can really make or break a nice car.
