Hey, maybe someone here can suggest something to me here. I recently got a set of colored toyota badges for the celi for dads day. Here--->Matrix Racing/Toyota Badges
The front went on fine, but the rear is going to give me some trouble. Problem is where the stock badge is/was, there is concave and the new badge is not made for that (its flat on the back). Was wondering if anyone had an idea of how to mount this thing so it would stick good. Thanks! |

Was the stock symbol two peice? I've often wondered that because it looks like it's two peice: 1 = emblem and 2 = adapter to make up for the concave mounting surface. If so I'd look at installing the new symbol on the old adapter, if not - try to heat it and get it to bend softly?

Thats interesting...lemme take a look here...
Ok, it is a two piece set up, but its really on there. I guess if I was not selling the badges I could take it off (w/some work) and adapt it. And I want to try and avoid heating the thing...not too sure what it would do the the badge. Maybe I will construct a backing and go from there, unless anyone has any other ideas? |
