yea the xb badge fits there really nice.. no adhesive or anything i slightly pulled on the plastic housing enough to let a TINY bit of the emblem to be under it and then it just stays perfect.. and the best part is i still can see every light. it only cuts into part of the traction control light, but the rest are almost fully visable. so it works out well.

and its funny.. everyone that rides in it is like wooah cool i like how they have the xb logo.. and i am just like "nahh i did that" and then they are like whaaa really???

so i am waiting a bit on the springs.. i had to get new brake pads and resurface the rotors so it set me back a bit.

so instead, i got a perrin intake and hotchkis strut bar..
