2002 clio badge on bootlid - stuck on?

[Jackson172]

quick question, is the rear Clio badge stuck on, or like a Saxo does it have stupid pins going thru the metal work?

had a look at the top half of the badge can be pulled away easy - its something on the botton which holds it on!

thanks

id laugh if you pulledit off to debadge it and found it had alignment pins though the bodywork..

like people with saxos find out - they should got a real car and got the peugeot 106. lol

the 'renault' and 'clio' badges on the rear have pins my friend

Think that one badge is held on with one pin,and the other has two!

renault badge doesnt. Keeping in mind if its got a renault badge, then its a RenaultSport - which are just stuck on, as they use the same tailgate as the dynamique's etc which dont have Renault badges.

Theres no way you'd ned to weld it, teh holes are tiny but yeah its still a pain in the tits, i got quoted £100 to debadge mine!

I remember my mates fiesta front end, when he debadged that - he simply bonded a coin onto the back and filled the hole with cataloy - everyone else on fiestaturbo seemed to be using coins too, lol.

Personally I dont mind the clio badge! Its the renault badge that annoys me on my car - I could deal with it if it said sport underneath it.

seeing as someone kindly bumped into my car im going to be getting the badge removed and welded up - thats the clio badge, and thats definetely got 2 holes in the bodywork.

welded?

I just smoothed my full tailgate and the only part I needed to weld was where the reg plate used to be, plated to bring the recess up so less likely for bodge to crack. To fill in the small holes where the badges used to be use the 'mesh technique'

open up the boot and remove the plastic inside, once inside stick some mesh behind the holes (From the back) Key (sand) the area mix up your bodge and fill in the holes. sand it down, prime it, spray it (halfrauds do a colour match) then laquer it, really easy peasy.
