Bad quality product! I had mine on for a couple of months, but I took it off because of the crappy quality. I did get the chrome badging with the cardboard placement cutout, NOT the stickers. Still, the letters are made of very thin material that will get ruined when you wash your car. Unless you do it yourself every time, and don't touch the badge. I got mine from Lancershop, so I'm sure its the same one displayed on the other cars in this thread.
Anyways, as I'm sure you will all notice after a while, when you get the car handwashed, the top right and bottom left peices of the "X" (maybe other letters too) will start bending and getting caught in rags. It got to the point where mine was so mangled that I couldn't stand the sight of it. It looked like it Said "EVOLUTION \" Plus, everytime i went to the hand wash, I had to jump out of the car and tell them in broken spanish to be very careful with the badge in the back because it bends and gets caught in the rags. The REAL UK badge is made of thicker, more sturdy material that does not bend like the ones we get from lancershop, ebay...etc. Just a warning. Maybe you can order the real badging from a UK dealer or something because these are cheap knockoffs.
WHAT!!!! YOU GOT YOURS FROM LANCERSHOP?
Was it the same price it is right now, $81.95?
How long ago did you buy it? Maybe they got new stock of OEM's?
A lot of the guys around here praise the EVOLUTION IX badge from lancershop to be the "REAL DEAL" OEM UK badge.
I was looking to dump my badge for a lancershop badge so it will last.
Can anyone else post there experience with a lancershop badge?
I don't want to waste $81.95 for something I can get for $30.
