Type R front grille emblem - Page 2

Hi there

Just realised that website was actually eBay, used google products search and thought it was through a website. I think its the same bagde as conrad has bought that was the point of my original question asking the sizes as i think the ones the guy is selling is for the boot.

I feel the same i really grudge paying more than £10 - £15 for a bl**dy badge.

I mean I bought the decals off ebay for around £7, I am just waiting for the summer to really kick in and then put them on when I have some time on my hands. But pay Holdcraft £60 for a badge? That's just daylight robbery..

My bottle went to put it on the bodywork so here it is on the grill.
I think it looks better than a standard badge.

What a Bargain for £8.50.

just thought i'd mention i saw a type r badge in halfords today reduced to £6.99! but the 'TYPE' is in all chrome (no black).

Looks best where nature intended it to be.

Not worth the money. For a couple of pounds more you can get an original

Looks good Dave!

l2ickard · 6th May 2008, 14:28

How did you fit your badge? Just with the original tape that's on it or is something better needed to keep it from flying loose?

Conrad'67 · 6th May 2008, 15:51

Nice one! Looks good! My fingers are crossed for it staying put!

Thanks for all your comments.
I have used a similar method mentioned by "Dimplyred". but I used a product called Evo-Stick "sticks like sh*t"
Yes that is the actual name before any comments. I smeared it on the back of the badge, over the original sticky pad and it did exactly what it says on the tube.

Word of warning though, try it in position with masking tape first then mark it with a strip of tape to line up the bottom edge.
Here is the product photo.

l2ickard · 6th May 2008, 19:12

Thanks! Will try to find the Swedish equality to the "sticks like sh*t" product

Thanks for the warning, will definitely use that method!

Brilliant product name good marketing to, i would buy that stuff just because of the name where did you buy "sticks like sh*t" from i was going to use no more nails on a roll.

It is a trade product and i got from work. You might be able to get it from somewhere like "screwfix.com" or someone like that who supply to the trade.

TYPE-R BOOT Badge Civic CRX CRV TypeR Mugen INTEGRA SIR on eBay, also Badges, Exterior Styling, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 26-Apr-08 12:36:08 BST)

THIS IS A COPY but a good one. The space in the curve of the R should be black. There are no links at the moment for any original rear stickers for the new CTR

Big_AL · 7th May 2008, 21:32

Just been browsing EBAY shops above for a badge, but looks like above links are cleared out.

Saw this one for 8 quid. What do you think?

Big_AL · 7th May 2008, 21:38

Or this one....

NEEMSTAR · 7th May 2008, 21:47

the 2 badges you put up are the old version (for the EP3) but would still look sound on our FN2

IMO the one ctrdave has is very very close to the original badges
