I tried to search for this but the terms were too short . Can someone let me know if there is any difference between the US MR Badge that was attached to the Evolution and the UK one? The UK one looks bigger in pictures and doesn't seem to be attached together but size wise are they different? Thanks in advance

 

totally different. the USDM badge is the same as the JDM badge. it's small, and sits in the corner of the trunk. The UKDM badge goes across the middle of the trunk, and is much much larger. Also, the MR trunk badge was different from the 8 MR and 9 MR in the states. On the 8 MR, there is the regular Evolution on one side, and a small MR on the other side of the trunk. In the UK, the badge was the same except the VIII GSR was silver, and the MR was black. The IX trunk badges were all silver.

my car came with the USDM MR badge obviously, but i've replaced it with the UKDM EVOLUTION IX MR badge. I like the UK version a lot more.

^ what he said. The UK badge is slightly larger than the US one. The UK badge letters are separate from eachother, but relatively flat in comparison to the US one. The US badge letters are attached, and have a black border around them, causing the letters to protrude more. US MR also seems to be "italicized", whereas the UK MR is not.

 

Off topic, but I like the Evo X's "evolution" and "MR" badges.



Didn't like the other one.

 

not a fan...and is that even an MR?

 

Yesm. If it's not an MR, why would I even put it on?

 

you're right...what was i thinking. no one has ever put a badge on a car that didn't belong there before.

 

lol^

 

nice pics odub. reminds me of my IXMR

 

It's all good.

 

i wish they made GSR too

 

The JDM MR badge looks sweet
