Grill badges - Looking for something other than a RA badge

Postby Seal Cub » Sun May 27, 2012 3:43 am

I've been thinking of getting an RA badge for my lancer but since it's not really an RA I thought it would look a bit lame.

Anyone know of any other cool badges that you can purchase?

Hey Zik,

I went down the road of having a RA badge on my lancer and to be honest took it off soon after due to that "well its just nothing like an RA" idea that kept popping into my head :P

The best place to start would be eBay in my opinion, search for "Car badges" and see what pops up. You can can ones that say "MIVEC" and "2.0L" everything like that.


Cheers

I took the Lancer badge off my trunk and added it onto the front grill. I think it looks pretty cool. I am sure if you search eBay you will find heaps of decal that you can add to the grill.

People who don't know about Ralliarts don't know what the badge means. It just looks pretty good in my opinion.

In your case, you want something relevant. Slap on something that relates to your mods (e.g. HKS) or maybe something that's personal to you (mascot, flag etc.).

The RA logo is pretty spiffy IMO. It's red - and it's on the front of the car half hidden in the grill. Perhaps a cursory glance of their rear view mirror from the driver of the car in front they'll mistake it for the red strobes of an undercover car. To complete the effect, have one at each ends of the grill. ;)

I ended up buying one of these :D

It's hard to find a small one, most of the ones for sale are pretty big.

I ordered it yesterday and it arrived today. Pretty fast!

It's just stuck on with an adhesive on the back of the badge. I hope it doesn't fall off lol

Nice choice!

I have 2 of these - one on the rear in line with the SX badge, and one inside on the dash/stereo. Transformers rock!

I thought of putting one on the grill too but found it doesn't have much to stick to... unless you have a hot glue gun or some epoxy lying around :)

Awesome! I like the idea of one next to your SX badge. I held the decepticon badge next to the "activ" and "lancer" and thought I should buy another one to do it.

If you use the hot glue gun do you think it's removable later?
