sport badge

[ukjohnny]

Had my boot respayed after some kids hit it with some stones, got my car back with the badge on the wrong side, how do i remove the badge without damaging the paint ! or would you leave it ?

 

[Middo]

i'd take it back and let them sort it tbh

 

[polarbert]

Hey mate, the best way is with fishing line I found. If you get behind the badge and sort of scissor away the adhesive, the badge should come off. Then its a case of rubbing away the adhesive and putting the badge back on. Although I'm not sure what you would use to stick it back on with that would be certain to last.

 

[polarbert]

But yeah I'd go back to the garage first.

 

[MT AUDIO]

agree with middo

 

[ukjohnny]

its been back at the paint shop 4 times and every time i take it back something worse happens so i'd pefer not to. If its a easy fix i'll do it myself

 

[polarbert]

Yeah it easy, just takes a bit of time. I cut my bloody fingers with the fishing line when I did some badges previously. Hairdryers I've been told work well.

defo take it back to the shop, they will think your being arsey, but then again, its there to be fixed is it not!!

Tbh I tend to think try it yourself.

This why you won't do any damage to the paint, as I could well see them taking a screw driver to it!

 

[Ross M]

bloody renault b******s did this to mine too !!

how can they get it wrong on their own fecking car.

take it back !

 

[ukjohnny]

ok guys thx for your advice, the people at the paint shop are real c**ks, if I'd known what they was like it would have gone somewhere else

take it back to renault along with a pic

they'll never get it right otherwise

 

[kully]

defo take it back mate

 

[jobac]

maybe wrong but is the badge not on the right side... mine is the same... check out some of these pics seem to agree with me... been lookin at others in the media bit and most seem to have the sport badge on the left under the renault one..

 

[fUbAr]

do it yourself!

 

[clio172_182]

take it back to garage, its there mistake they should fix it

 

[lewisniven]

use a hairdryer mate. hold the dryer over the badge for a while, pointing it down at the adhesive, this will make the glue tacky and ull be able to just tease them off with a credit card or sumthing, not much force required.

then a quick polish to get shot of the residue.

 

[Matta_88]

take it back to the garage at least if they fudge it they pay for repairs!

 

[Munchkin]

Retrim the back of the badge with Halfords trim repair and a scalpel - works a treat!

 

[SteDonaghy]

On my 182 the sport badge is under the Renault part as well

 

[Blue4Ever]

He means it's:

Renault
Sport

As Opposed to;

Renault
....Sport

 

[Kiev85]

all it needs now is a 1.2 engine...

or better still a fiat/ford or any other non renault car...to go on the back of

 

[ukjohnny]
