    Orange badge origin

    This orange badge was on my 69’ 912. I suspect that it’s not the original but Im curios about its origins. Is it new Porsche production, a decent repop or something else? Thank you. John

    It’s not original ‘69. My take is repro rather than current classic production. I haven’t paid much attention to the new offerings.

    Several characteristics that are not per the original Orange bar badges.

    original badges are flat. yours seems curved. it s a repro from a later style model (74 forward, filled with flat enamel)
