I've spent a lot of money with these guys over the years and for the most part been very happy with their products. This one unfortunately is a fail!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-71-Pontiac-GTO-Judge-Dash-Board-Glove-Box-Emblem-w-studs-mounting-clips-/370842413104?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessorie s&hash=item5657ee2830&vxp=mtr
The reproduction Judge emblem although close in appearance is poorly made. The backer plate is hot glued to the back of the emblem and quickly separated from the backer when out of the package. The pins are simply press-fit into the backing plate and I guess the hot glue was intended to hold those in as well - that failed too.
I ended up using an original emblem out of my stash on my 70 Convertible, I tried to return this one & first they said it was sourced from another company they drop ship for, and then finally said it was beyond their return window.
I don't think I've posted here before about a product that's poor quality or a supplier that won't stand behind their product but for $100 you should get a little more quality than this and a company who will stand behind it! I'll consider this again when ordering from them.
