The team will get this resolved as soon as possible, thanks for your patience.
PM inbound to you. Thanks.

Got my badge today, but haven’t gotten my new grill, so I’m waiting for that to arrive before I install them.

Heres a quick fitment look using double sided tape

That definitely looks better than the silver/grey, but I think I'm just going to wait for an aftermarket gloss black grille without the emblem cut out. I really dislike when manufacturers put guide holes in the body where the emblems are. It's the same on my Z06 for the front & rear and the car would look so much better without them.

Would've been nice to get the shadowline package, and it changed the badged to black too. Seems that would've made sense.

I like the AutoTechnik gloss black motorsport grille, but I'll wait until it's on Aliexpress or Ebay for $100. I'm not paying $595 for an abs plastic grille.

Interestingly enough, I’m actually trying to fabricate a way to put the badge on the grill I got which does not have a place for the badge.

I think that grille is already duped (was looking the other day), but perhaps carbon or matte FRP (no gloss black).

I did see a matte FRP version pretty cheap. Would have to get it painted, and just don't have time for that.

I'm sure they get them from the same supplier and mark it up 500%. No different than the cf headrest pieces you can get for $140 but these vendors sell them for $400-900.

My king. How did you get the double sided tape off the original emblem. Speak to me like I’m a 5 year old.

Dental floss or use a thin plastic pry tool between the emblem & the grille. It should pop right off.
