Type-S Badge on front grill

I did a search, but found nothing. Has anyone put the Type-S badge on the front grill like BMW or Audi does. I think it would look nice in the bottom right. Thoughts?? Pics??

If you mean on top of the hood then I think that might be a little too ricey.

here is something similar to what you're asking


I think it would look good if those Chrysler wings were removed.. but with it, the typeS badge there would make it look cluttered.

Kind of....Leave the gril as it is, but just put the type s badge on the lower right section of mesh...

I've got them on my fenders. WIth the way they stick, I doubt it would adhere to the grill without scraping off the tape and epoxying the stupid things...
It would probably look pretty cool as they are quite small and the grill opening is large enough so it won't look cluttered...
Why don't you try it and post some pics???

I agree, that looks great.. but then it doesn't have those wings in the middle like the TL does..

ebay would be cheaper to get the badge.. or a dealer.. or even better if someone debaged their car and is willing to sell it..

I think the Type S badge is too small to put on the grill. You can hardly notice it on that one pic, but I do like the mesh job.

yo edub your grill looks great. Do you mind posting instruction for me cause i wnat to do that grill over my spring break. as for the badge, I thought of it and no the tls sign wont be too small. THe reason why i havent dont it is because i dont know how tp build the grill but as soon as that happens i will drop in the type s sign so others can see if its a good mod for them to do.

AZN,

sorry dude, that's not my car, it's ST2000 from A-CL
He's selling the grill kits over there if you are interested
Its a metal mesh grill material, with rubber outlines on the lower grill, and the upper grill is just mesh material cut to the size of the grill

you guys need to be more resourceful. call your local auto salvage yards and find out if they have any wrecked type s's. once you get there and pull the emblem off, they may give it to u for free. even if u pay for it, it wont be more than $5...
