Oh Snap! Just got a facelift!

I feel and was asked in my post about the spoiler to get it if you feel it necessary. Meaning drive your car enjoy it and if you will it loose in the back and or the need to extend the aero component to the rear than by all means go ahead. Its not everyone's favorite part-the rear wing. To me it kills the lines I feel I fell in love with and help make me buy the car--so for unless I feel i need it I will just keep the Gt3 style front end the way it is.

Good point, I would agree with this...and a debadge would probably not be too cool either.

Every car I own is debadged (well, except the club coupe and I am loathe to debadge it only because I don't want to modify the car). When I used to live in Germany, it seemed like every Porsche/BMW/Mercedes was debadged as well, and it is a factory option. It had nothing to do with being a poseur and everything to do with aesthetic choices.
Now, putting on the wrong badge is over the top, but, to me, debadging is different. If someone knows about Porsches, they would never mistake a full aerokit 997 with a GT3. The GT3 has extra vents in both the front and rear bumper. If someone doesn't know much about Porsches, they are not going to know or care about the differences anyway.
As we all agree, do what makes you happy without regard to what other people think. I am pretty sure we all agree on that!

I had the same feelings about the impression debadging can give. The C2s we just bought was originally ordered sans badge with the aero kit - we asked the dealer to put on the badge before we picked it up (and they did no problem, thanks Garth/Pioneer). Although the back was 'cleaner', and would be easier to clean without the emblem, I just prefer the look and the idea that it doesn't seem like it is subtly trying to appear as something it is not.
