trunk emblem upgrade
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
i removed my stock emblem which is gray but got a Burgundy red "Jaguar" coming off from a Vanden plas and "XJR" from the later year model
note that I had to drill a trunk key hole on the "XJR" badge/emblem.
i think they will give more contract to the car body color and more modern look
BTW, my taillights are "darkened" by smoked/tinted paint

well, all comments should be welcome since this is a forum platform. comparing with the original all-weathered out emblems over years. I think this little update is NOT that "horrible".
the original emblem has a hole so I had to drill one as well(with no choice), I wrapped the emblem with masking tape then drilled and slightly filed the surface before removal the tape.a pretty clean drill thou.
yeah, the new emblem is a bit smaller but I have no complaint
