Waxed and debaged my Sonic!

would painting the badge with touch up paint be a good idea. or do most people just rattle can them.

Looks good, Sonic Boomer. I like the silver bowtie.

If I understand your objective, I think adhesive vinyl film is the easiest and best solution. An extra benefit of the vinyl is it'll come off pretty easy if you need to remove it.

Alive comes a dead topic, do the sedans also have these locator holes?

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

yes. Opticon could you more about it though.

Thank you, I was just thinking about removing the rear badge and inserting black nylon plugs with a dab of silicon.

The only badge I'm taking off my LTZ is the dealer sticker on the drivers side of the hatch. Personally, I like the other badges, especially the 'turbo' badge indicating I made a wise engine choice.

Yes. Same holes as the hatch. I used a small chrome Holden badge to cover mine for now.

My turbo emblem doesn't appear to be entirely adhering to my hatch. The side closest to the tail light is about 1/8th of the way off the paint.

So is mine. Been that way since day 1. Hasn't gotten any worse (yet).

Remove emblem, purchase loctite clear adhesion tape from walmart and reapply badge perfectly flat. I debadged my sonics bowtie due to it not being 100% flat making it look extra bulky. Looks good now after putting it back on again.

So I finally found something to cover the two holes. I'm usually not into decals, but I thought this one was kinda fun. If nothing else it'll keep the water/salt out of there for now.

I guess you should have trademarked that sh*t?

Where would one get one of those decals?
