I received 2 pair....which was a good thing because I ran into the same problem as Nagare. One would not go on even with a little help from Mr. Rubber Mallet. It would pop off. I swapped it out with one of the other ones and success. Nagare, I still have a pair, one of which is the dud that wouldn't fit but the other one should be good. You're more than welcome to them if you can't get yours to stay put. If it doesn't cost more than a $1 to ship I'll just mail them to you - no charge.

[MENTION=29330]catchthecarp[/MENTION] mine came with two pairs as well so I'll be trying all of them on each door as is and if that fails, will be heating them up a bit to try that way. Appreciate the offer though!

I didn't have any issues, but it was a pretty warm day when I did this. As mentioned, try a heat gun or hair dryer to warm them up first.

Got em both on now, hopefully they stay put because it seems like they may pop off. Warmed them up in hot water.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

A little silicone may help to keep them on. :thumbsup:

Front Grill Emblem

A number of people have asked where I got this grill emblem. It appears to be from just one source in China. The delivery did not take very long and the finished quality appears good. It has been on the car 9 months now and the finish remains the same. Be sure to use thread lock when assembling and installing to grill. If anyone is interested:

For $8 I'll bit; It doesn't look bad. If I decide I don't want it, I'll throw it up in the for sale section.

How about the Stanganator? Guys name is Erik. He used to sell them on Esty. His number is 619-944-0550 if anyone is interested. Call him or text, he'll take care of you. :cheers:

I have them on my car in the grill (and my previous EB front and back), but they start at $60. While that's going to break the bank, it's not exactly inexpensive. For the quality, however, they're a bargain.

You guys reminded me to put my emblem cover on! Not quite as intricately detailed as the Stanginator (didn't feel like doing the whole bumper/grille removal process tbh) it comes in at $25 instead.

Not bad for $25.

But, in neither my EB or my GT did I remove the bumper or grill to install the Stanginator. It was much easier on the GT because of the lack of shutters, but even on the EB I was able to get the nuts on with a small socket on a screwdriver like handle (as opposed to a ratchet), with a tiny bit of emblem adhesive to hold the tiny nut in the socket until it was started on the post. The GT took maybe 10 minutes. The EB longer with much cursing involved.

Just got these... I posted it on another thread as well.

Now available on Amazon Prime. These were available originally on eBay, but it would take forever to get them since they would ship from China. Now with Prime you can get them right away.
