Who would steal it? Use a dab of silicone or something. Or use jb weld to "weld on a bolt on the back and then use a nut with a large washer to secure it to the grill.

Since I would steal it if I saw one I must think like a thief. So I was thinking about it . I know someone has one and can tell me how its mounted.

If you're thinking it, why not DO it?! That way, you'll see how it's attached and if it was effective!



If *I* were to try to steal it, I'd probably jam a screwdriver behind it and yank. But based on its size and its thin edges, it'd probably break off in pieces. I'll guess there's no way to prevent its theft - or its damage should someone try.

I have a ghetto R badge on mine: I cut up the "turbo" emblem, because, you know, there's an "r" in "turbo" =D
