Im going for same emblem from evor but I dont like that hole either
Any easy way to fix this?? I dont like the carbon fiber back one either

zeeder

I didn't like any of the backing options they had either. I've ordered some touch-up paint from the dealership and will look around for an appropriate plastic disk to make my own color-matched backing like some have already done.

I'll take some pictures of whatever I decide to do.

That hole makes things really dicey with your options, I cant wait to figure out an alternative.

All I did was use the disc that was included with the emblems. Scuffed it up, used some adhesion promoter, had a can of magnectic black mixed up in aerosole, bought a can of clear and sprayed it. Double sided tape and was golden. Been on for a few months and no problems.

The problem is that I got the one without the disc because I was under the impression that it would work without it.

So if I get one with carbon fiber backing disc like this one then will I be able to separate it from actual z logo part??

Yes, that's exactly what I ordered.

They are two separate pieces.

If you don't want the backing that comes with the EVO-R emblem, just don't order it. Why pay extra for something you do not want.

zeeder

Unfortunately, they are the same price. Oh well.

Backing or no backing plate they r same price
If it come with two separate piece then I can just color match on my own

Colour matched backing.

Well, I didn't get a call from the dealership regarding my touch up paint Friday but decided to work on the emblems. I put on two coats and decided to peel it off and start over. Here are the emblems ith two coats of gunmetal. I figure another coat or two and then a few coats of gloss. Hopefully, it will look good lol.

Almost forgot the picture:

If this turns out well I may do the door handles as well!
