What does your hood boadge look like? If it is gold then I suggest 1 or 3 to match. JMHO though.

What about these - the one on the right? This is the new 987/997 style center caps with the large colored crest. My wife's new 997 came with these, and I'm thinking about replacing my smaller Porsche colored crests (shown on the left) with these. I think they look better. Plus, they look like they'll hold up better, because they don't have the cheap piece of plastic covering the crest.

Exactly!! I am thinking the same!! Both Caps are couple, and 987 center cap has bigger size emblem, but .. do you know which material is? plastic or metal?

Regards.

I'm pretty sure they're plastic (I'm on a business trip right now, so can't check). I think Boothe (sp?) makes something similar in metal

If you're looking for metal, try http://www.boothedesign.com/centercaps.html - kind of pricy, though

Can you confirm 986 and 987 center cap are compatible?? (60mm?)

The 987 cap with the large crest is from the Cayenne, believe it or not. It fits some Cayenne wheels. The cap has a 955 part number.

I have been told it will fit a 986.

I measured this cap on a Caynenne, 997, and 987. I then measure the cap used on a 986. There were all 3 inches.

Thanks!! I am going to buy the new center cap set for 987 (955.044.600.10) and I want to be sure it will fit on my 986, then can I buy?

Your part number is correct for a set of 4 caps. They are listed for a 997 and 987. They are also listed for a Cayenne with sport techno wheels. They should fit a 986/996.

This is that cap on a Cayenne with sport techno wheels.
