im glad people are using my link. i think the italic letters look exactly like the badge at the begining of this thread

all i did was remove the 3m tape on the back of each leter, and used some quick steel in very small quantities in key locations to get that floating look.

Cool. I just ordered my letters. Going to pull an unconventional color with mine to go along with my brembos and hellahorns ;-)

How would y'all recommend mounting these to the grille?

Painted the letters red, and made a bracket from a 3/4" by 3/8" piece of aluminum I had left over from another project. Drilled 2 holes threaded some screws, removed the heads and painted that black.



Then using the already applied sticky back I attached them to the plate.



And test fitted to the car. I still need to remove the bumper to do a small fix to the rusty area below the mitsubishi badge so this was just attached with double stick tape and then removed. (Needs to be placed a little better anyway)



Not perfect, but it works for me =).

I think this is the best way i have seen in this thread so far. if i would have seen it sooner i would have done it this way.

as for paint i cant remember the brand of paint but i know it was formulated spacificly for plastics
