PPL with RS front grills

hey guys
im gonna be putting my front grill on...i got the 'RS' front grill and am gonna be putting on the 'SI' instead of 'RS'. But when i looked at it, where the 'RS'/'SI' goes on, it is the shape of the letters 'RS'. For you guys who have it, doesnt it look weird from close when you look at it?

Did anyone do anything to make it look better than put the skinny little 'SI' in the fat 'RS' spot?

If anyone can take a close up pic of theirs, whether they left it as is and just put the 'SI' on the 'RS' part, or if ya did sthg custom to make it look better, if ya can send me pics, id appreciate it. Also, any advice will be appreciated

PS- i posted here cuz i know a few guys have this done in toronto but forget who. also, couldnt post under anything which americans would likely reply cuz it only applies to canada (they have ex coupes, we have si coupes, they'll get confused)
plz send pics to nadimr@yorku.ca

thanks in advance!

Do not put the Si on the RS spot. It will look ridiculous...

I started off with the Altezza style grill actually...my first emblem was the one from the back of my car that I painted with red Nail polish; I found this a bit small so I ordered the USDM Si symbol off ebay.

So maybe the best way is to sell your RS grill and get an Altezza one (?)

I got mine off procarparts.ca or something like that...like $50.

If you don't want to wait for shipping and stuff you can get them at Pacific Mall for around $80 I believe (not sure at all tho)

Yep, it holds really well with the OEM tape if you make sure it's clean when you stick it. Or you could Auto-goop it too.

There's no specific place, just stick it where you want
