Daston Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 My black SZ has them and they are very nice think they were standard as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 are you thinking of buying these? seems a bit much for gold badges I am mate as it will compliment my gold wheels (and the current badges look a bit boring against the rest of the car).

Al Massey Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 wouldnt it be better and cheaper to spray the ones you got fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j19edg Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I had a set, mine didnt stay on the car very well though because they are made out of metal they dont follow the curve of the supra very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLC Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 You could say I have very similar ones fitted on mine... They used my car in the pic?!? No gold has worn off as yet but only had them for about 2.5yrs so far. Was a fellow traded by the name Midastouch on here and another Supra site that did them. Bodyshop never stuck my 'Supra' one on properly and it rained before I noticed. Never has fully stuck down properly since so I would recommend a LOT of pressure or better still to slightly bend it so it takes firmer hold first time.

That was the kinna thing i was after as well! cheers MLC. you say bodyshop stuck them on?.. do you know if they used any other glue other than the stuff already on the back of the badge.. because I believe i have the same badges as you...

ChrisSZ Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Use a hair dryer to warm the area and the glue first - you'll get much better adhesion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, no other glues, just the self adhesive backing. I took them down with me when I went to pick up the car so saw them being put on.

Faye Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Had mine on for 4 years now using nothing but the adhesive on the back of them, not had a problem. My brother's on the other hand seem to have trouble sticking - he's got a wayward "a" on his Supra badge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j19edg Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 One thing i might not of done in my haste to get them on is clean the area your sticking them to well enough. Only gave mine a quick wipe need to get all those layers of hard worked wax off before you apply them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
