did you de-badge your front?

I didn't know that under the Mitsu diamond on the front were two holes.
I took mine off and saw those, after I had broken the badge.

What did you do to fill yours in?
I figured just a bondo and repainting job would do it.

OR do you where to get a replacement one, other than the dealer?
(I'm sure it'll be like $50 or some outragous price from the dealer)

schick,
go to junkyarddog.com they can take one off a busted galant and send it to u, cheaper and u really dont need a new one,...unless u want to pay 50, in that case i will get one for a few dollars and sell it to u for 50, i can use all the money i can get!...lol

Can you replace that front badge with a larger silver one from a newer Eclipse or Montero?

MitsuMan · 09-04-2002, 03:22 PM

i dont see why not, the hols might not line up, but if it is bigger it will cover the old holes, just get a drill and go to town on your car.......lol

great more holes

I debadged the whole thing.

With the kit and airbrush job, people ask if I'm sporting an Accord or an Eclipse. How dumb are people? I guy that owned an Accord asked me if I was in his online club, that a moron.

my front was pretty banged up when i got my ride. i heard that on the 94-96 versions of the 7g the front T-bar is very weakly designed. that is y it was changed for the 97-98 versions. so when i got it banged backout the guy just made it the way it was before but just without the holes. it looks great now.

Those holes are there! They are a pain in the ass but you know the saying...do what you want. I get the whole mistaken identity thing too. I have been asked more times if my car is a freakin civic than I can count. The only symbol on the car is the BLUE one I have in the front.

I also debadged, there are many people who have said it looks like a bmw 5series...yeah lol i wish. the two holes were easily plugged with
some fiberglass and then painted over.
