Looks good! I didn't think of that. After my fail, I got a Sick Badging Technologies badge for the front of mine.

Yours sticks well with the 3M tape? I hadn't thought of that solution. LOL

Yeah, so far so good. In my experience, the prep phase is the most important piece with these emblems. So I took one of those clorox wipes and wiped down the grille area and the back of the emblem. I also took sanded down the emblem so it was nice and smooth for adhesion. Then I ensured the grille and emblem were completely dry before applying the 3M tape. Like I said, so far so good. I figure if it falls off I'm only out $10 and I'll buy the one that screws on next time.
 
I got the badge with the screws and no matter how I put it on the grill I can't get it straight with the way the honeycomb lines up to the studs on the back of the emblem.....might grind them off and try tape
I was told that with the badge I got that some modification to the grille is needed to get it straight. I took a small black binder clip and attached it onto the grille, which holds it straight on there.

I have mine in the same spot but mine was bolt on
 
Looks pretty slick, did you just buy the R/T emblem for the Red DD? or where did you get it?

Nice symmetry with the Dodge emblem!
 
To each his own, but couldn't disagree more. Personally I feel the OEM's put too many badges on a vehicle. I like not having anything on the fenders, have removed the chome dodge on the rear lid and have the others on the lid blacked out. I plastidip sprayed the little dodge in the grill so now everything is truly "blacktop". I think it crap really, that I buy an 18 RT blacktop and have to swap in my own gorilla black lugnuts, debadge chrome and plistidip others. A blacktop package should be a total package, not half ass. In my opinion you can't have some black and some chrome badges, it should be all one way. WTF is with putting chrome lugnuts on black rims? That looks temporary as hell. But, like I said, to each his own.
 
I agree with the blacktop package badging, wth is up with that? I don't have the blacktop edition, but it was one of my first mods to change it over to one from the chrome badging. It really stuck out like a sore thumb, so did my exhaust, so I changed the tips on that too. I even removed the chrome lettering from the tailgate. I did however, remove the "dodge" from grill and add a chrome R/T badge there. Went with chrome because I thought it would look weird having a bright red DD and a red R/T badge. I thought about a black R/T badge, but then it would have blended in to much with the grill making it a useless mod.
