CS Register Grill Badge - All gone???

[autokunst]

Thank you Stephen, the badge is a work of art and I love it! Just as John said, my fiancée said "WOW" when she saw it, might be the first time for anything car related

I finally had time to install it today:

That is sharp! I hope my car looks as good wearing a badge as yours does.

Thanks! I'm totally sure it will

Thanks so much for putting this together and shipping out so quickly. Badge looks awesome!

Well that didn't take long did it. Well done Stephen, this badge already is a collectors item.

Does this mean NLA tax now applies

Yup 25% upcharge unless he makes another run...

I'd enjoy making another run. But I suspect it will be some time before there is enough interest to build a large enough order. Meanwhile, the rare item tax will have to apply to pry them off grilles.

It'll be a nice compliment to the E9 grill badge. Well done and thx.

a few lines, and photos on the installation of this beautiful jewel

i have decided to go for the vertical structural post of the grille, the one that is close to the headlight opening
5th opening counting from top is my choice, it does not get as centered with the line of the headlights, but i do have driving lights, so there it is

as to assembly i have used two types of tubbing , including silicone tubes, to fix and block the struts in the opening, and neopren to make it stay without damaging the plastic slats

do not overtighten, better if apply a drop of loctite, a counternut or selflocking nut

hope it helps

Top notch installation, DeQ. I wouldn't have expected anything less.

 

[Philippe db]

Why keep it simple if you can make it complex. For sure the best engineered grill badge mounting.

 

[Stan]

Typical DeQ attention to detail!

 

[Wladek]

Yeah DQ - great idea.
When i received my badge - the first thing i told to myself "heavy bastard - old plastic grill spokes might need some help to handle it in long term"

 

[autokunst]

In all honesty, I am surprised you didn't round off and polish the end of the bracket to match the other side.

Seems a bit careless otherwise - ha ha. Just kidding.

Take a good look. He made a notch that perfectly fits around the grill rib so that the badge has no chance to migrate.
