Default New Nose Badge

Everyone has heard of the show "Pimp My Ride" right? Well, I "Geeked" my ride. Yes, I wear my Nerd badge with honor, and now so does my Challenger. Never forget your roots, LOL!

Here are the pics:

For you Non-Nerds out there, its the Autobot symbol from "Transformers". I was a huge fan of the Cartoon back in the 80s.

Well, anything is definitely better than the stupid Ram's Head.

Hey! It looks like there's a guy with a camera reflected in the close-up of the badge!

That is an Excellent job on the badge!!!

Wear that geek badge proudly. Did you create the badge or did you have it done?
Transformers are still cool in my book. I grew up with them as well.

I found a guy on another forum that does custom carbon fiber work as a hobby. I gave him the design and 60 bucks, and he made it for me. If you are interested, PM me and I will reply with his email.

It took some doing, especially in the cold. It has two hook style clips that hold it in. I put some cloth down to protect the paint and used a screwdriver to pry it up high enough to get the cloth under it. I pulled upward on the cloth to make a gap big enough to get the screwdriver in there and press on the clips to release them. I broke one of the clips though, so if I want to go back to stock, I'll have to get a new badge. The new badge is held on using 3M adhesive.
