I think I would have centered it equidistant between the line of the underside of the spoiler and the crease that stretches under the tails. You centered it on the trunk itself, instead of the space it's a part of.

But that looks nice too.

I always saw you saying to drop the Fuji on a lot of build threads so when I debeadged I originally tried that route but the Fuji was too low for my liking with a lot of space on top between the Fuji and the underside of the spoiler so just went with the trunk. Definitely loved the idea Rochester!

Honestly, that's all that matters. At the end of the day, you're the one looking at your car.

But yeah, I'd nudge it up to the middle. Probably wouldn't have painted it either.

Sorry, just thinking out loud. You get props for even doing it. For some reason, there's a freaky kind of anxiety that goes with taking badges off a car.

Wont lie when I decided to take the Fuji off to actually paint it I was mad nervous I just made a huge mistake. After install I had no idea why I was so nervous haha.

I used a 3m product when I removed the trim from my old XJ. Made me a believer.
