DoubleM Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I bought two L clips at home depot. Ya know the things to help secure a computer desks or other things. Bent them back a little bit so the badge sits on an angle. Drilled two holes in the grill all the way by the back. Used some JB weld to hold badge in place. Over a month on there and hasnt gone anywhere. cant even see the L clips when looking at it. Can take a closer pictures if you'd like. Oh ok cool. That would work pretty good. I was thinking about sliding a little bracket in between the grill and the chrome surround piece on the grill, and mounting the badge on that... Can I see some closer up pics?

Catalyst Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Just wanted to throw up a quick update on my painted grill. So far it's been a couple months now, and it's held up awesome. No chips or flaking, nothing, still looks like it did when I put it on. It's been probably 4k miles in all sort of conditions and temps. First post here: http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1948242&postcount=187 I was going to take an updated pic, but honestly, it really still just looks that new. "This is an adventure."

BigInALegacy Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Gotcha!! No, looks good though. I gotta get around to attaching something to mine soon. It looks too naked with all that mesh there, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevkel33leg05 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Thank you man. I like the mesh but didnt feel like hacking away at my girll But really wanted a badge on the driverside. Thats the best i came up with...I love badges on the driverside of mesh grills on our cars just like whobaru's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercury3545 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 When you paint the grill do you paint the whole thing or just the chrome areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmoe Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 ^Better to paint the whole thing. Masking off everything but the chrome areas would be overly difficult. If you want to paint just the chrome "wings" on the grille, they come off...screws on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.sane Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 black out the headlights and you'll be lookin even better! since you've got black fog bezel, black grill, and black spoiler http://legacygt.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Or just get those headlight tints for the corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmoe Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 That looks nice ric37. I like that spoiler too. Yes to ^ and black out those badges too. I did mine black and it looks pretty nice. Or maybe remove them entirely. The OEM splash guards would go well too. The Subaru logo on the bug guard will come off with some Goo-Gone and elbow grease. Ok.. I'll stop now.
