Ionic Gialla Grill Owners: Who Has Infinti Emblem With It & How?

I am really interested in picking up a Gialla grill from Ionic as I have had great experiences with their eyelids, etc. Paint and fitment was awesome and I'm sure I will experience the same with the Gialla style grill. My only concern is that I want the grill to look 100% OEM. And this being said I feel that the Infinti emblem HAS to be put on it.

I was thinking about drilling some small holes and using zip ties but I'm really not sure if this would be the most secure way of holding it.

Anyone done this without any issues? Thanks!

3m double sided tape is more than enough.

fyi - it's the rear trunk emblem that people use on their after market front grilles.

As mentioned, use the trunk emblem. I also used 2 part epoxy when I had mine and it's still in place with the new owner after 2 yrs.

So 3M double sided tape will hold an emblem onto black mesh? How is this possible to withstand rain / snow, etc. Unless I'm just missing something and if I am I apologize. But I absolutely love how it looks as long as the emblem is secured that's all that I really care about.

Use the 3M tape to hold the emblem in place while you apply the 2-part epoxy. Dab the epoxy in from the back through the mesh.

epoxy isn't necessary

Calvin, mine didn't hold in place with the double sided tape even with the center support bar on the Gialla. May have been the Florida heat but it was starting to drop after two days.
