Default Front emblem

I agree that it would look much better on the rear. Now if it were Chief Pontiac I would have a different opion.....

That much weight may slow it down!

I think it's cool but I would have done the white LED color. Mercedes has their front emblem glowing white and I love that!

I like it. Match the rear emblem too. I've done this on my daily driver (2007 Acura TL Type S) and it looks fantastic.


Pictures to NOT do this mod any justice.

You're right pictures don't really do it justice. This was just a trial run to see how I like the emblem. I plan on getting another one for my front bumper that glows white and then getting one for the rear that glows red and connect that to the 3rd brake light.

So if anyone wants a front emblem that glows red.... let me know

Most places it's illegal to run a red light on the front of a car. Great way to get a ticket.

Adam,

You'll never get a good picture of this mod. If you like it, stay with it. I know mine looks great on my Type S. It's a great mod......

Probably something my kids would like a lot. Not for me.

Like others have said, it makes sense to do it in the back
