How do you fix the Heico badge to your grille?

[sdavidwh]

Well, my Heico badge has finally arrived from Germany. I am wanting to put it onto my new black mesh grille. The badge has 2 long screw threads to the rear. How do I secure it....do I have to cut the long screw threads down?

can you not make 2 holes in the grille to match?

trim the screws down or use spacers

When I bought mine, it came with a plastic block spacer.

If thats not there then cut screws down.

Pics!

Yeah, no spacers. I thought I may have to cut them down. Just didn't want to rush into it, as they say, you can always cut some off but you cant add it on

cheers guys

Piccies when you have the grille on please?

[sdavidwh]

I will, I'l do a before & after.

Only prob is, I am gonna set this up so it's ready to go onto my car & wife said if she don't like it she wants the S40 grille instead. I know where to get one for £50 delivered. I am gonna be setting this grille up tomorrow so watch this space

50 quid!!?? that's a good price....I simply couldn't find one when I was looking...

I still have the mesh grille in the garage which I never got around to sending back, I also like the painted grille which was posted on here and still hopefully have an S40 grille coming in the near future so I am watching all these grille modifications with great interest!

You never know I might actually decide which way to go at some point!

I'm now waiting with baited breath!!....

So this is how the badge came, way too long screw threads & no spacers



so I had to cut them down






Now I have got to wait till the wife comes back with my car after work.
