the x in my rear "mazda rx-7" badge is broken. i'm just going to remove it, but i remember seeing another post where somebody said there were holes behind the badges, in which case i'm going to have to get another badge to replace the broken one. so are there holes or not? thanks.

 

Yes they are there. Thats part how they stay on.

 

ok, thanks. guess i'll have to get new badge.

 

There are holes behind the 'mazda' badge, not behind the RX-7 badge. That one should just peel off, a new one comes with adhesive on the back already.

great! i can just get rid of the rx-7 and keep the mazda...hmm..too bad it's not the other way around...btw, anybody know of any products that takes the goo away from the adhesive without killing your paint?

 

GooGooGone. I dont think that strips away paint.

 

3-M makes an adheasive remover that won't hurt the paint. You will have to re wax the car as the adheasive remover takes off the wax as well. If you use a mild scratch remover you can take out some of the hint the emblem was on there. Jack

 

my emblem came off last night, well the RX part anyway. the paint doesn't look too bad underneath but i'll have to give her a wash first and see...yeah i wish it was the other way around too, take the mazda off

 

Did anyone have the words "twin turbo" under the "RX-7"? The letters were gone before I got the car, but Mazda only had the "Mazda" to go in it's place. See the pic to see what I mean.

 

guess some of us are too cheap to buy a new rx-7 badge :-p

 

its weird how the big "rx-7" is just adhesive on, but the small "mazda" uses holes. guess mazda didnt want us to take it off ;-)

 

The old RX7 badge is a little cheap looking. I've been thinking about taking the badges off for a while. My RX7 badge is crooked I think I keep looking at it. I can't decide. I look at other 7's as well, and sometimes they look crooked too.
Am I crazy?
BTW. Goo Gone is pretty good.

where can i pick up a stock rx-7 badge for the rear? anyone sellin one?

 

JONSKI: Weird. And your 'MAZDA' is crooked, too.

 

It's your eyes. They're crooked.

 

The dealer prices for the RX-7 and Mazda badges are quite high at about $50 and $20, respectively (ouch!). Perhaps mazdaformance.com or one of the other shops that offer OEM parts at a discount would have better prices.

It looks like it may have been the letters TKT from Pettit. It's what they call their performance setup and they use to sell the little TKT badges.

 

That's definitly a TWI on the left and an O on the right.

 

My car has the "Mazda" but not the "RX-7". I ordered the efini emblems ($30), and I'm just going to use the "RX-7" from that with the old "Mazda". This is cheaper than the factory "RX-7" I think, and I can convert to efini badges later if I feel like being a poser .

 

I was going to do the same as LAracer, but I like the Efini badges better, so I decided to be a poser and got the whole set.

 

ill put sum badge pics up,

 

this car has the same lil thing as jonski posted, and i have seen it on a couple other 7s like this as well

 

i like that montego with the Porsche badge..
Here is what I did. I think I am sick of it already though.

 

Thats a wors epic than I thought. It's efini and 1st gen badges in case you cant tell sorry. I'll let TpCpLaYa do the pics from now on.
