I picked up this new deluxe boxed set from England recently. The main badge is metal [most are plastic] & the round decal goes in the back window.
The little rectangular decal allegedly translates to ...... "Hi, lets buckle up" but I have no idea where it's supposed to be placed.
Plenty of the standard 'bagged' sets around, but it's the only boxed set I have seen.

The main badge will go on my recently arrived new Sunny KB10 GL grille.  Nothin' too good for 'My Lovely'

I was lucky enough to score a few metal ones in immaculate condition when I was in kyoto. Still to be worn by the K.

Yeah D, they don't make the car go any faster, but they add to the 'atmosphere', or visual appeal [eye candy?] when the car is on display, or even just parked, particularly when going for the full JDM look with all the Jap Sunny emblems.
Ehh, it works for me.

I've been wanting one of these for a while. I've passed on the expensive eBay items, passed on the inexpensive bad condition ones.

Now at the junkyard I visited in Japan they were like "what do you want?" and wouldn't let me look around. I am thinking they just crush the cars with all kinds of goodies on them. I saw them putting cars in the crusher that looked like they'd sell on the corner sales lot here ...

This is the more commonly seen standard set, or 'bagged' set with the instructions printed right on the bag. These came with the plastic emblem & they show up often enough. They tend to go for about $120 US on eBay, but I was fortunate that my boxed set was in England & I was able to get it at a significant saving.

































This photo, shamelessly hijacked from TnPshow's website shows how it all blends in.
There's only one spanner in the works now.

After finding new headlight rims, new black grille, new GL mirrors, & new amber parker lights, all of which are here with me, the mob that I bought the new Sunny grille emblem from have 'lost' it.
It's the red/white/blue rectangle on the left side of the grille. I have advised that I don't want my money back, I want the blessed emblem.

Once the front bumper & fender side emblem issues are sorted, it will be ready to bring home & these two issues are about to be addressed in the next week or so.
