va850guy Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 I managed to get my hands on a custom grill emblem with a yellow background. It looks really cool but it's too large to fit onto my S70. It can probably be made to fit with a dremel, but I'm afraid of screwing up the emblem. Is there anywhere I can take it to have it done for me?I'd include a pic, but I don't know how.....

Mesoam Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 bust out the dremel man! I made a custom red one from an old 240 emblum which is alot bigger than the 850's and it took about 1/2 hr to get it right...just go slow and keep checking the fitment.

Will Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Dremel is your best friendMy emblem started out as a big sheet of CF. just cut a square, and dremel the sides to make it fit good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
va850guy Posted June 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 Thanks for the feedback, but having paid about $60 for the emblem, I'm really, really, reluctant to have a go at it myself when I'm not comfortable doing it. This is 1999+ emblem, so it's thicker and the corners are more rounded. Not sure which car it belongs to, but it definitely isn't the S70.I'm thinking I'll take it to a local hobby store and see if I can find someone who's an expert with a dremel.

Mesoam Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 holy shiznat!? 60 bucks! send that back and make one yourself! get one of the black emblums off of ebay for 15 bucks then scrape the paint off the back and repaint whatever color you want!
