Red MR badge on 06 front grill

Ok, so i have a GG 06 MR and have seen a few with the MR badge on the front air dam to the top right of where the mitsu tristar symbol is. Does any one have this on there car? Where did you get the MR and how did you install it?

Im dying to get it and have only seen it on 1 car! POST PICS IF YOU HAVE 1

I saw someone had that a while back and asked him how he did it..
Can't remember his name here.

He said he got the UK MR badge and used the sticky tape to put it on the mesh in the center grill by the mitsu symbol..

He said it stays on well, but after a few car washes and rain, I doubt it would stay on for long..
You might could make a bracket that you can glue to the back and attach that way, but i wouldn't just stick it to the mesh with the sticky side.
good luck, let us know if you find out any more info on this..

I did something similar to this when I had my old WRX. I have a friend that does body work, and he owed me a favor, so he used some fiberglass resin and stuck the WRX logo in the front grill for me. It stayed on perfectly fine. Maybe a little expensive of an option, but that's how I did it at least.

like this:


I just took my emblem off the rear and stuck it on the front. The adhesive was still sticky. It's held up for over 6months now. You cant see it too well but that is the whole evolutionMR emblem. You can't see the evolution part since it's black unless your are really close to it.

^same here only I added a couple mini black zip ties cause I didn't leave any adhesive on it when i took it off the back. I was detailing the car at the time so the stick was all dissolved.

I bought mine from Lancershop.com. It's been on the grill for well over 2.5 yrs - never came off. Adhesive is pretty strong i'm guessing!?!!

That looks very Euro-nice! Similar look to RS4, S4, etc. Been wondering what to do with the MR from my stock trunk lid.

I took my MR badge off of my Lancer evolution MR, i just put 3m double sided tape on the back and trimmed it, it's been on there for 2 years! and it looks great.

Im going to do this with my badge! The one on my trunk is kinda messed up but luckily the MR part is still good looking. Once it gets a little warmer out here I plan to replace the rear one and put the old MR on the front grill
