    Yes, for L (only 1 year production) all badges should be gold.

    Maeter,

    I love that you’re putting the ‘68-only side markers back on for the full original factory look as most have scraped them off over the years! Which measurements are you looking for? Here’s my US-delivered 1968 911 L that I finished restoring a few years ago and am happy to provide any measurements to help.

    Whatever measurements would allow me to put them back in the right place as the previous holes were fully closed up. Appreciate the reply and the pictures!

    Will do …. “Chester” is still in winter storage but with the warmer weather here this will give me a reason to get him out for the season! Will grab some pics and measurements hopefully this will and will post ‘em up

    When you grind off the paint and filler you should see the holes. There aren't any good hard points to measure from.
