Fender Badges

[Jerryss]

Hey Guys -

So, I rebadged my '11 black Gen, but one thing I feel, that all cars need is that little bit of "fender jewelry" - nothing extravagant, but something - especially a black or silver car.

For example, on my 95 Impala SS I had , I put the '62 crossed flag emblems on the front fender, on my Cadillac CTS I put just the Cadillac "badge", not the Wreath, on the fender, same place as the "V" badge. (some examples below)

I would love to put the "Wingless" Genesis Badge on the fender, but the only "fender" badge I see is the Prada badge -

Anyone have any ideas or source for wingless Genny Badges? Anyone have similar feelings?

Jerry

As far as feelings go, I am more of a clean fender look. I never have liked the signature badge that GM puts on all of their cars. Everyone's taste is different though.

You can try some of these I suppose:

I don't think any of them are true "Genesis" badges though.

hey Ruissimo -

Yeah, there's the trick - there's a fine line between classy and tacky - those are tacky, I am not talking going to Pep Boys and getting a $2 V6 badge to junk it up ......but I was wondering if anyone else ever did a fender badge - I guess nobody ever did -

Just seems a natural place to me for a little accent -

I had installed Lorisner badges on my 4.6 which looked great IMHO. I cannot count the times people were trying to read it. The cool thing is the way it is made/written it is almost impossible to read. Being debadged of Hyundai and being one of the nicest looking cars out there, people try to read the brand off the fender but can't really manage it. Had way too much fun with those so I will order a few more for the Rspec. Here you can kinda see it in my accident thread. http://genesisowners.com/hyundai-genesis-forum/showthread.php?t=9209

Hey Midnight -

That's what I mean! I like that - very nice - and I agree, it is just a nice accent - I would have been one of the same,trying to figure out what that meant

I had to buy 10 of them to get a decent price. When I do get them, I will send you a couple. Just cover the shipping charges. PM me with your details. Will take a while since China is normally at least 3 weeks. They cost me $25 for 10. Here is what they look like. http://www.ioffer.com/i/car-chrome-badge-emblem-sticker-lorinser-mercedes-benz-102020849

Instead of those badges... I think the 5.0 would look pretty in that same spot.



Where can I buy replacement OEM emblems? Anyone?

Nahhh, 5.0 screams Mustang on the fender.
