For a D3 you want two of the RRS front badges, the RRS rear badge (which is designed to fit on a flat panel) will not fit without trimming the extra plastic surround off it which isn't going to be easy or much fun to do
Disagree - very easy to get the badge off and then all I did was stick them over the existing badges.Loving the power of the TDV8!
The back one does not stick out - the front one dues a little but not much. All I'm saying is that this an easy way but maybe not the best way.Loving the power of the TDV8!

It is, it really is
I'd disagree with that. Had a load of trouble getting the front one off. Drilled a hole near to the edge and got one side up, but as I pulled it the badge, it kept shredding. Took ages to get all the bits off. Must have used extra glue on mine.... Looks great when done, though.
Just buy new centre caps for the wheels StuThe End

Did one in the centre first - large enough for a decent size screw driver, but couldn't shift it. Ended up putting a second near the edge to try and prise it off.Disco 5 HSE Lux

thought my badges may have arrived by today - they didin't.
thinking though i should take the green ones off whilst i have a few days of rest. question is, what is it like under the badges. is area reasonable enough to leave until the new ones are stuck on???I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.
