can't seem to find it…jb speed is sold out.

 

I have it. It was a nightmare to fit it on the car.

 

I got mine from eBay, but it's plastic. It fits better than JBspeed's however.

 

I just received the color version of that from JBSpeed.
Its good quality but its only 45mm and ours needs to really be 57mm
I will take a pic later so you can see what I mean.

 

What is the consensus here? Would love that as well.

 

My issue with aftermarket badges / emblems are discoloration and clear coat issues after a while.


They look ok for a while, then start turning color etc.

 

^^Agreed!!

I had the same emblem as described in this thread. Can't remember where I got, but know that it came from Japan. I ordered an extra, but ended up giving it to Jerry from Eurocharged.

Anyway, I also has clear coat issues. It looked great for about a year or so, bur ultimately ended up looking terrible and I removed it because of coating issues. The clear started to crack and peel and really took away from the reason I got. Like others posted, it was plastic but that didn't really matter until it started peeling. It was a great idea and looked super slick, but ultimately it was bad execution.

Good luck and I hope you find a winner. I guess you could do a clear yourself with something of substance, but I fear that you will ultimately end up with the same issue. After the sun and so many car washes.....bound to happen.

 

Got mine from ebay as well.
So far so good and it's been 1 year so far.

 

As you can see its alittle smaller than the original emblem. the original is 57mm and this is 45mm.

we will see how long it lasts.

 

Speed zero on ebay. Decent quality.

+1 no issues

 

Yeah those look small. If it was 57mm it would look amazing.
