Title: 35 edition wing badge position.
Post by: Richie.27 on 14 August 2013, 14:49

I've managed to get hold of some 35 edition wing badges as the previous owner had them removed. Can anyone help me with regards to some measurements so I can get as close to where they would've been from the factory!! Maybe just a measure from the wing crease and wing edge would be great. Thanks

Thanks. I have tried my local dealer who I bought the badges off, and he told me to guess!! May have to phone around some dealers if no joy on here. Thanks buddy all the same.

If you could do that wigit that would be most helpful. I did ask when I ordered the badges if they came with a template, as my type R decals did. But the dealer seems to think not. Until they arrive I won't know. I'm on holiday at the moment so will know more when I get home.

the top edge of the 35 is 8mm from the crease line

on the drivers side (assuming RHD) the bottom left corner of the 3 is 18mm from the door edge

on the passenger side the top right corner of the 5 is 27mm from the door edge

i'd use sum detailing tape to line it up which I did when i put them on the rear
