I don't suppose you know where I can get an authentic (-looking) one of those? Mine has a (presumably aftermarket) one with a Porsche logo. Those with a plastic insert in the top don't really cut it.

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

A little research seems to show the original ones had a dome-topped plastic insert. I prefer your solid wood with the diagram marked on, though.
