The R/T logo doesn't have the top of the R and T parallel and neither are parallel with the bottom of the T

if thats the case how the hell do you fit them on at the right angle

anyone got an orginal R/T with the badges as slung on by a bored man in a factory 30+ years ago who can tell me the angle from the vertical of the slash.

i have just absolutly screwed the installation of me beaver panel RT Decal and they, as i have just found, don't come off in 1 bit. GRRRRRRRrrrr

$15 for a sticker pffft

Know exactly where you're comin from. :D

If the cars not an RT , then the panel won't be drilled for it.

I put a dob of paint on the back fixing pegs to make a mark , then drilled it , or stick it on with silicone.

this is an aussie car so i don't even get any holes to work with

cheapskates they were and used Vinyl stickers....

no holes on original or anything else. damn-n-Blast as they said in olden days

i have the blueprint from the factory. Gives RT badge positioning but appears to be based around the idea that the stickers come on identical square bits of backing.

these days they don't, they come on RT shaped bits of backing.

can find a nominal centre for it for positioning on the panel but not the position round that centre for correct lean of the R/T

some seem to be almost

R
/
T
as opposed to R/T
and some are nearly R|T


anyway it'll take 6 weeks for a new one to get here

If the tops of the letters are meant to be on the level,you should get an idea from this?

Dave, I reckon my R/T emblems have all of the horizontal lines pretty much parallel? They cost a bit more than $15 though...
