hey, how is your mugen logo being held up onto the grill? double-sided tape?
b/c i just got a used 06/07 one. it's got two pegs in the back, but no threads or anything to bolt onto to secure it.

If you bought a used Mugen grille, why didn't the previous owner have the emblem attached? In fact... why would someone sell that grille in the first place? Were they parting out their car for some cash?

i don't know.
but those plastic things didn't come with it. i just got the grille trim and mesh (both painted in pwp, which i have to repaint), the mugen logo, instructions, original box, and some double sided tape.
i wonder if i can pick up some washer substitute to keep it on there. i don't want to epoxy it.

I bought my emblem separately ($26 for a stupid ass small emblem) and used the 3m tape on the back to secure it onto the grill. That's all it really needs to be secure.

Any chance you have a better shot up close of the Blackout tape on the windows...
I'm asking because I was washing my freakin' 06 today and as i hit it with normal pouring water, I saw my chrome chipping on the front grille... WTF.
So now I'm thinking of A. Buying a new aftermarket grille. or B. using black out to black out the front grille.
Thanks

Ohhh! I thought it was black-out tape! duh
Thanks for the correction!
So where the chrome is on you're grille you had the body shop take it off and paint it the same color as the car? Any pics? Was it expensive?
