    Default Wing Emblem

    I've owned a gen coupe since Feb and I've just been waiting to see how good is the quality of the Wing emblem is. So how is it guys, does it last?
    I have the nord grey and just wondering on your opinions to mount the wings with the art of speed or not?
    And how is the art of speed attachment holding up to?



    I've been slacking on the mods since I got it haha.
    Any suggestions which vendor to order from??

    I bought my gunmetal wing emblem off of this site, I put the back one on in early may with the art of speed backing, it seems the gunmetal finish is getting a little spotty and some of the letters on the backing are wore off. If I were to put them on again I would try the matte black ones , or just paint over the one's you get with a good quality uv paint. something that does not fade outside.
    they look sweet when there on its to bad they were made so crummy.
    thats just my 2 cents.

    >full 20% tint

    I've had mine installed for a few months with no issues, Casey's had his installed since basically they've come out and he hasn't complained.

    Failure rate of the chroming is about 50% for gunmetal, 1% for Chrome and I don't know anyone who'd bought the 24k Gold series.

    Do you need to remove the grill in order to install the front emblem?

    No, no, you needn't remove the grill to install a wing emblem.
    Here's a link to some install pics:
