Just wanted to give a big THANK YOU to BT for the great work they do.
I've got a few interior pieces, but today I got a little brown box in the mail - my side badges!! I'm truly addicted now.
If you haven't picked up any of BT's products yet - be careful... you will want to get everything they offer. My BT wish list is extremely long.
I know the badges are simple in design, but it's just what I like. And BT got it perfect. Their attention to detail is second to none and the customer service is the same. I look forward to more stuff - can't wait to get the engine kit!
So, here are some pics of their craftmanship. Just got them today, so I'll add more pics when they are installed. And maybe some pics of the other BT goodies that I have.
look great. Be sure to post some pics of them installed
Thanks. Will do. About to search for some installation help. When I looked at the OEM badges I was surprised to see how snug they were in there. Hope to get around to it real soon and post some pics.

Thanks Bruno. And trust me, I know I'm at the starting gate.
I wasn't kidding about my BT Wish List - here is my real one right now (it's going to take me awhile, but a piece at a time)...
Ok, so I finally got around to installing the new side badges. Now I like to throw back a couple of beers when working on the car, but this install took place at about 3:30am with a buddy after a LONG night of drinking. I just couldn't pass up his garage, because I have to park on a public street at my house. So probably a bad idea to mix some heavy drinking with a high speed dremel, but I pulled it off. Although I won't make a habit of it.
Actually it was stupidly easy. I expected the side badges to be like the one on the trunk, but they are actually just a really thin piece of plastic. The backing is flat and solid on the top half and slotted on the bottom half, so a quick dremel hole in the middle but bottom half of the badge gave me a good enough hole to work with. Popped a slim screwdriver in the hole and started to pry off the emblem. Came off easy. Cleaned up the leftover glue and popped on the BT badges.
I was happy to see when I woke up that I didn't have any dremel slips.
Thanks. Still not sure if I'm keeping those on. I didn't like them at first, then I liked them, and now I'm in the middle. Truth be told, I actually like the look of port holes - just not the fake kind. I doubt I'd ever actually cut real ones, but it would be either real ones or nothing. So I figured I'd add those emblems in that area to see how they looked. So far, they are still on. And actually I have gotten a few compliments on the road from other people who knew they weren't factory.
Tim - maybe you'll see them first hand on Tuesday! Although, I think your car is definitely the looker when compared to mine.
