   i know this takes the whole point of a badgeless grille to another level lol.
   ive just bought a badgeless grille for my car, but i think it looks a bit plain for my liking, is there any small badges what would look good stuck on to the grille?????
   
   
   cheers!!!!!

    you could always get a rocker cover badge and stick that to one side of the grill... i have seen that done before, it looks ok. especially if you get one with a colour coded background. check www.dnnsigns.co.uk

    Why don't you buy the "saxo" badge for the rear and put it on the front grill?

    Get another "Saxo" badge that goes on the rear, and put that in the middle of the meshed grill. Looks mint

    I was wondering about doing this.
    
    Ive got a black VTR so was thinking paint calipers yellow and get a little yellow n black rover cover badge and offset it on the grill
    
    Anyone think that would look good? Its dimma grill btw

    Again, I prefer the normal grille which as said you can cut the slats out and mesh the back, I had that done on my 1.1 with the chevrons painted black. But if youv got a dimma grille I recon the chevrons from an AX would look well good.
