    WTB: Original hood emblem speed nuts (2 pairs)

    I’m looking for original, not new repro, speed (fixing) nuts for my 2 orange bar hood badges.

    Please PM me if you have some.

    Thanks.

    I’m curious. What’s the difference between the ‘original’ speed nuts versus the ones Porsche sells at the dealerships?

    Best,
    Ravi

    I restored Matt’s two badges and the repro speed nuts I bought from Germany are rubbish. Too hard a material, wrong colour, hole too small, goo in the inside (like blue tak) and not rubberized, the flaps which are meant to bend as you push them on don’t and the base diameter is too big. Other than that they are ok. …
