Does anyone know where I can get a small displacement badge for my 2.4? Not a sticker, an actual 3D silver chrome badge..?

I just removed the Oldsmobile badge from the lower right corner of my trunk and think that a 2.4 badge would be nice there.

what i plan on doing in the future once my bodykit is molded on is put GM symbols in place of where the oldsmobile symbols were. Kinka like a acura with honda symbols, made by honda and alero made by GM. Not a sticker but a badge with a 3D look, with the blue square with a silver outline and the silver GM letters. Now thats pimp so dont nobody steal my ide:cool!: :cool!: a

thats called JDM. acura doesnt exist in japan, not until next year. why would you promote GM by putting their tramp stamp on a car they axed?

i know what JDM (Japenese Domestic Market) is, all my friends drive imports with the badge swap, and U do have a point about them axing the OLDS but i just feel it will look nice, clean, and unique. But i just read in the news that they will be putting GM logos on the new vehicles, so much for my cool idea

i just think it would be gay to see 2.4 or w/e on the back of an alero, i saw some guy with V6 ones on the back and then SS ones on the side like on the new monte's and i thought it was fugly

I put a "V-6" badge on the back of mine about 6 years ago.

When to teh GM dealership and pcik it up. It's a fender badge from a 94-95 Grand Am, but they are now using the same badges on a few of the Saturns, blah

After looking for 2.4 badges, I determined that the 2.4i badge from the '05 Volvo S40 would be the best fit. (the 'i' could be shaved off)

It's not very recongnizable, as it was only used on '05 models, and the italic font mathces the ALERO font fairly well. For those interested, here's a rough photochop of what I had in mind. The 2.4 badge is the badge from the S40:

(My license plate frame has since been removed..)

After thinking about it though, I'll probably just leave it clean.
