now that I can see it, it doesn't look too bad. Looks too high and too far left though for OEM placement. Did you flip my measurements?

Yeah I can see that now. I was just looking at the badge at first. But now that you mention the JG signature yeah it would look off if it was placed where it would be normally.

I really like it, man! I don't like that it says pace car on it, but, ehh...It's not really THAT big of a deal.

Thumbs up, man! Good stuff!

Yeah looking at the following picture yours seems to be a lot farther towards the center of the trunk than it should be. Has your car ever been in a rear end collision?
