First of all Porsche push me to do this. They let me choose Aurum wheels and Aurum model designation at doors but at rear model designation no aurum choice. My car is Volcano Grey and the model designation was black so it wasn't even seen or noticable or fit the car. So we removed it and air brush it to same color with wheels and door emblems ... I think it's much better now...here some photos of it..

Hello @guarlian - I agree this looks great!

Where did you get the Aurum paint to air brush it with and did you get Porsche to do this or a body shop or a high end detailer? Or was this DYI?

My order has the Satin Platinum Mission E Wheels (On Cherry Metallic) and I thought about doing the same and having the logo on the back somehow painted in a matching Satin Platinum. It would be a more subtle change than what you did - but I would also like the logo to match the wheels.

thanks for your comment.official porsche services not doing custom work .there is a custom car shop /garage in turkey which focus mostly high end cars.very high qualty works they did at past with my other cars.they are working with bentlys astons rollroy.. vs .it was 1 day work for them they just learn the code of the paint.they remove the black model designation with some fishing rope or somethng like that.and they send it to air brushers.they also tell me i dont even need air brush for this regular car painter also gives the same result but i sad i will go for air brush.hardest part is before remove they mark everywhere so after item painted they will stick it to same place they remove...i hope this will helps you..

Love that colour combo. Just specced a Cross Turismo in the same colours. Struggled to find photos to show this on a Taycan, so I'm so pleased to find this ??

Tag Motorsports in San Diego, CA area can do custom color emblems. They can acquire the emblems from dealer, refinish and ship to you.

Yes. Unfortunately Porsche does Aurum everywhere but the most noticeable rear badging. Fortunately, my dealership is taking care of paint mine.
