Hi, is your crest still available?

Looks like a reproduction to me, anyone else? Long pins no solder overflow, horse does not look right.

So you're trying to tell me that it is not made by Porsche? And that someone faked this? With correct markings on the back? I have a repop one that doesn't have these logo's on the backside. I think you're wrong.

Mounting pins are not in the right position.

Well you did start the thread with Original orange bar hood crest, and if you look at the subtle differences of the stampings you can see them. The ring around the R on yours is fine and defined as are the 901 below it. Look closely at the letters of the Porsche and yours are 'sharp and crisp', even the head of the horse is wrong in fact Im sorry to say that the whole badge is so NOT period correct for an Orange hood badge,
