Been there! Though never off my 924.

I had one pried off my Fathers 74K 911 Carrera 4! At middlebury college none the less. Cost a lot to go there but some lowlife townie likely did it.

I hate it when other people can not respect some ones property!

maybe you should go with a sticker badge like they have on the new gt3's
That really sucks though

Enough to make you sick. Maybe his Playstation was broken that day.

Unlucky, dude.

P.S. Are you related to Pete_in_AU?

It's happened to me as well, the rear badge was ripped off at a grocery store. They're not too expensive online but if you get a used one you're probably encouraging stealing them. Might make sense to attach it more securely, like welding or thread the posts. I've got sleeves around the posts with a screw going in at 90 deg. to the post axis.

Putting them on too securely just provokes the idiots around here to pry it off with a screwdriver. The resulting damage to the hood isn't worth it, so mine now go on with silicone.

Been there too. Now I just press the badge in so the paint won't get ruined if someone tries to pry it off. Some kids collect 'em.
