Badge Relocation



Took the FR-S badge off the back and decided it looked alot better here
Warm day in SoCal made taking it off a cinch,
Then I reapplied with some 3M tape.

What do you guys think?

I was never a fan of the FR-S rebrand in the US, but since putting the badge here the name's grown on me...

Not bad at all. But I think it's a little too big for the dashboard (then again, it could just be the angle at which the picture was taken). From what I see, I think would be better if it was smaller sized.

Agree it looks too big, and I'm not crazy about the chrome since it doesn't match the chrome in the 'pit, but not bad really. I'd be tempted to either blacken it or match the car color with it though.

Also, I haven't looked but is there an airbag there? That would be an issue.

It does look different. If I was to put something there, I would want to get it etched into the panel. But that is just me.

As long as you like it, thats all that matters
