They are a little bigger than stock
You can just fit these over top the old stock emblems

the oval shape of the rear emblem is what makes it visually fit better.

without the brake light and the trunk line so close to it, it wouldnt seem so large. Hence why it looks fine in the front

Yeah thats been a concern of mine. Sadly the plastic ones cant be made smaller.
However since the aluminum ones are drawn with help of a computer they can be scaled down smile.gif

I can't wait to see what the aluminum ones look like smaller. I will pick up one for my rear if you can figure out a way to make it fit the concave! wink.gif

thought for rear emblem:
Where to place the mounting pins for the holes. Im not sure the diameter of the holes or the width of the outer ring, but if this is scaled down, the outer ring may be able to line up with the holes and you could have the pins come from behind the outer ring, making for a cleaner mounting look ( i know the way you have it mounted in the pics is just to see how it would generally look, and isnt a permanent mounting method)

WOOOOOT! Got the emblems in from my friends shop!!

Told the machine shop to scale it down to 2.75" instead of 3.25"

AND ITS PERFECT!



Rear: The Ring will cover the mounting holes and leave it at the perfect spot between the center brake light and edge of trunk


Front: The bottom of the ring and the cross of the "T" cover the front holes perfectly

Was thinking 12 shipped for 1; or 20 shipped for 2 for anywhere in the us..

I've never shipped to another country, what's the best way to ship to aus?

I'm not too sure as I haven't sent anything from the US I Aus either! Haha. Best bet is to just look on USPS sites etc and put in the weight and see how much it is, and average time it takes.

Some of the other guys might have a better way though.

LOL.. never would have guessed tongue.gif
Alright USPS says it'll be about $18 to ship to NSW. or $10 for Parcel post. (padded envelope)
Just an estimate as I have not weighed them yet
