I know a few folk here have debadged their bonnets.

Has anyone added a badge to their front grilles?

and has a shot they'd like to point me at?

thanks

I used to have a Pininfarina badge on the bottom right corner of a Zender grill which I thought looked tasteful and classy. cool

No pics but I think I may have robbed the idea off Pinin Prestatyn? shocked laugh

I'm sure Matt will be able to confirm or not. smile

I have a Hyundai Coupe badge on my grill. Put one on my Zender grill and then moved it to my current grill.

I'll try and have a look for some photos smile

oh yes- no kidding...

I wondered if anyone had put a FIAT badge on there after taking it off the bonnet?

Of the two options, I prefer the off-set one, but both look interesting

I'm thinking about debadging the B pillars (not a small job I know)

and putting the 20V badge on the grille

Each to their own & all that. Although there are far worse things you can do to your Coop, it's like food.

Personally less is more for me.

I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time

I've always thought this kind of arangement looks nice on a coupe with a smoothed bonnet. I've seen it done with a modern round Fiat badge too like this looked quite smart sort of OEM+.

AutoDs has one on it's website too a cada equipped one with a 16vt grille. I'd imagine the 16vt grille is quite good for this sort of thing as it's flat smile

I think anything more on the grille looks a bit "how's your father" lol

These are all very tasteful. Can't stand it when people take off the Fiat badge and replace it with a Ferrari one!
