I recently acquired this nice new cast metal of some sort Griffin badge with acrylic orange wing details.

Its about the same size as the rear Toyota Badge on the boot lid so Im wondering If I should remove that badge, clean the tape residue marks and stick this one on in that place.

I think it could be the best location, as I prefer to keep the front Red Griffin where it is.

Any recommendations or pictures for that mater of similar pieces on Soarers?

one is enough on a soarer, either replace the red one with this or just keep it for a rainy day( when yours gets knocked off)

a badge like this is going to get swiped VERY quickly, personally I wouldn't be fitting it to a vehicle, maybe make a keyring from it or similar :-)

Hmmm it getting stolen is not really an issue as I never leave my car unattended and its parked well off the road securely way down a drive. But If I parked on the road or shopping car parks a lot in less comforting areas of Auckland, then it would be easily swiped by some low life on the dole...

I still like my Toyota Badge on the back, I like the factory look so I have thought of other ideas to have it put.

Possibly mounted in front of the top mount air cooled intercooler set up when its finished. Would be a nice touch in the engine bay. I think most of the attention would go to the supercharger on the right though!

You didn't say how much it cost you.
If your red one has never been touched then I'd risk it and replace it with the new one. Keep the red one just in case.
Don't stick another one on somewhere else it'll look tacky.
I've had mine on a couple of years now and no one has tried to whip it.

I wouldn't be going for the steering wheel with SRS Airbags there, have a slightly hard nudge, and you will have a perminant reminder on your forehead of the car you drove when you had an accident!!!
