If anyone stumbles across that part number, and it's cheaper than $10 apeice please link. GM dealerships are literallyt everywhere so I'd pick them up if I had that option. Thanks as always, Rick!!

PS- searched ebay stores for like 20 minutes but could not locate it... the setup there for finding stuff it TERRIBLE, isn't it? :( Now watch... someone's gonna find it in like 40 seconds now... Heh.

Aren't these too long, though? The ones ImagoX linked to originally are 3.7" but these are 5 1/4". The same font, though. How long are the ones on your car?

That one is off the newer Grand Prix GTPs '05/'06
GM part #10342484 comes with the "GTP" letters.

Looks like that part is anywhere from $12-$16 apeice from a GM dealer... Looks like Rick's eBay store is likely the cheapest solution...

Oh I see. So you cut the GTP off yourself. Looks good!

No cutting required.
They are separate emblems on the new GPs.

I just brought her home today and I've already installed my first mod! Got these off of the posted ebay link earlier in this forum. Thanks for the link!

"Kompressor" emblem on a Mini? The Queen Mother will not be amused.

Well, can't call my non S Cooper a "SuperCharged" car, so I got this instead:



"Sport" emblem, blends in and I like it - the fact that it's on the right side, while the Cooper letters are on the left also make it more unique - I like that, too. hehe.

Take care,
Leo.

I've also seen the "Turbo" badges... too bad I can't get a "normally-aspirated" badge, but I guess that'd be too long... I guess I could find an "N" and an "A" somewhere.

I got my "supercharged" emblems off eBay. They had all sizes and were cheap. I installed mine just below the side markers.

I imagine they will have "turbocharged" emblems on eBay, as well, because you can find those "kompressor" ones there, too..

this post made me want to do the same thing...a week later this is what i found for my MINI...I don't think i've seen this badge used yet..



installed...





distance...



from underneath....It looks like the badge is elevated a bit, but in person its not..it meshes up well, the shadow from the sun makes it look weird.


So far, i REALLY like the rear badge...the badge flows very nicely with the italic lettering used for COOPER. not sure if i like the two on the fender yet...i'll give it a few days and see if it grows on me...nota bad deal, $20 for 3. (the pics aren't the greatest, the car is dirty and its very sunny outside, but i couldn't wait to share..)

I really like the rear one as well. The other two I could take or leave. But the rear one looks like it came on the car!
