Where do I put my badge?

First time Subaru owner. In complete and total love with my DGM BRZ Limited. Waited almost 3 months to get my Subaru 1st badge. So... Where do I put it? Ive seen people that put it in their glove box, people who put it on their intake box. I actually am so proud that I want to imbed it and maybe have it surgically graphed to a part of my skin. Kidding, but anyone have any suggestions as far as the locale of said emblem?


Thanks,
Tim

He was serious, man, not being an asshat. No need to get so butthurt.

This is your car, and aesthetics is a reflection of your taste. You put that badge where you think it should go.

Me, personally, I'd put it in the engine bay. But that's me, not you. Put it where you want.

This is my first Subaru too...so I'm not well versed in the whole badge thing either. However, there are a lot of other Subaru drivers in my area (mostly Foresters and Outbacks), but I typically see their badges on the outside of the car just underneath the rear Subaru-lettered badge.

That's a bit safe in my opinion. Why not stick that sucker on the lower right-hand corner of the dash trim piece? Then you and passengers see it every time you go for a drive?

My recommendation would be to buy a plain black license plate frame, and put them along the bottom edge. Lets them be prominent without having to actually attach them to your car.

I ordered my ownership/loyalty badges and I plan on placing them in the glove box or engine bay. I am very proud to own my Subaru's but I also love the current aesthetically pleasing look of both of them and do not want to take away from that.

To the OP; Ultimately this is your car and whatever you do with it should bring you joy. Congrats on you new ride!


Cheers,

-Nate

Stick down some clear vinyl, right in the spot where they specify, and stick the badges right there. If I were to bother I'd get biking, performance, and they need software development and gamer badges.

Bro you can't get offended that easy on a forum.

But I put mine in the glovebox. And as stated it's your car, if you wanted to know where we put ours should have titled it different. Not trying to be a prick either. Just sayin

Not offending anyone, but questions like these are sort of... pointless.

Polls about what color to pick for wheels, which suspension is the best for under $2k, what color car to get... I mean, some are legit questions, but others are just a "I'll go with the most popular answer" choice.

I got the same badges but never got excited enough to put on badges on the car. I ended up sticking them on my garage cabinet door, only because that's where all my other stickers are. Your mileage may vary.

You can also put it under the hood, glovebox, rear trunk, bumper, door, window, wherever you want. There is no right/wrong unless you think it is right/wrong.

Not in the blood gutters?

Fake vents forward and below the mirrors.

Upon further inspection... OP, you have a total of 12 posts and you're about to stop asking questions? Come on man. Also, you have a thread about de-badging, yet you want to add this badge?
