pakuz_757 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 We ordered our boat with the "B52" deleted. The boat showed up without the "B52" and the "MB". They sent down the "MB" to have the dealer install it. We took the chance to have it powder coated glossy black before it goes on. The shop down here in Santa Ana did both for $50. I'll post more pics after its on the boat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Brianinpdx, clovenburg, maverick and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slavoise Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 How are they installed? I thought they had bolts that went though them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pakuz_757 Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 How are they installed? I thought they had bolts that went though them. Each emblem has 9 bolts with nyloc nuts. I'm pretty sure if you pull back the interior carpet you'll be able access the nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondatech117 Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 But if the boat was bought without emblems, they would have to drill into the boat to install? slavoise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker626 Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 But if the boat was bought without emblems, they would have to drill into the boat to install?thats correct! I had my emblems powder coated. I had to razor knife each nut. Now way was the carpet pulling back. That was just in the rear lockers. Front emblems were open and easy to get to.

pakuz_757 Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 But if the boat was bought without emblems, they would have to drill into the boat to install? Yeah and normally I'm fine drilling holes in my boat. But when its 9 holes on one piece, 1mm off to the left on one and another mm off to the right on another, you're screwed. I know my limits. I would assume MB is sending my dealer a drilling template or they will be making one themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PATRON Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 I suggest having factory installed. Logos are time sanded then brite dipped Powdercoating chips and flakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Looks night & day better! Great job!!!! I would recommend powdering the "swoosh" on the tower as well. That would look good. There's also a lot of other pieces I'm sure you can get coated :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettLee3232 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 From what I saw at the dealer, just a few screws. Ahren at AWS AZ did it to his and looks really good. Brings some color to the tower. You know what else would be sick is if you tied the blue into the speaker grills on the tower!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MXGUY741 Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 do you think this will stay looking nice? worst case scenario can you buy this piece as a part if it starts to fade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
