Re-badgeing time. (It's weird, most indigo blue facelift legnums I've seen don't have any badges.)

Can anyone with a facelift legnum be so kind as to let me know the measurements in mm from the bottom edge of the rear vr-4 badge to the edge of the door and the rightmost side of the badge to the side of the door. Also the same for the 3 diamonds on the other side, and are these diamonds supposed to be red or silver?

I've attached and excellent 3d rendering of the values I'm after represented by a,b, x, and y.

Whats the best adhesive to use in anyone who's done its opinion?

VR-4 is 65mm from the bumper to the bottom of the badge. It is 95mm from the top of the 4 to the side of the bumper with the ruler held horizontally.

The diamond is 115mm from the bottom left edge of it to the side and 65mm vertically

Awesome, thanks for your help guys, I've just stuck them on with double sided panel tape, hope no-one picks them off! These badges have added at least 20hp if not more! ;)

I'm pleased you all appreciated my detailed schematic of the back of a legnum! /yes

Galantonly: Whats that picture from? (with the measurements on it)

Are those diagrams for PFL cars?

I ended up using the 65mm value as in the 2nd post. Ive just got the red diamond on one side and vr-4 on the other side (both with the pfl silver edge) no mitsubishi or legnum. Anyway, doesn't look too bad.

That's exactly what it is... PFL. So Brad might be right/yes

Ahh yes I was measuring on a facelift. Also not that I was measuring to the edge of the bumper, not to the edge of the boot panel.

Andy, the snow bird is a Jap spec car with heated seats and stuff. Only available in 4wd with the 4G93 and 6A13 n/a
