I just watched a video of a guy taking the whole back trim piece off to swap the badges. Why are some people removing the trim piece on the trunk but your not having to? Im confused
Removing the trunk trim may require more steps, but less likely to damage the surrounding area. The trunk trim is rather soft. When you remove the trunk trim, there are 2 tabs on the back of the emblem that will allow you to push on them to start to lift the adhesive from the emblem. Neither way is wrong, its just whatever method you are comfortable with!
While the emblem may be able to be removed from the JDM option grilles, the grille was designed for the badge to sit in that area. This was our factory grille painted black in this video, with carbon Molded Innovations Winglets.
Hello, this is a garnish for the factory grille. It can be found here: subimods.com/products/molded-innovations-carbon-fiber-front-grill-trim-cover-set-2022-wrx
Do you happen to know if 2018 WRX STI emblems will fit on a 2022? Bought some but not sure if they fit, don’t want to take off the front bumper for nothing
Hello, No they do not fit. But we do have dedicated emblems for the VB platform that are a direct fit. subimods.com/collections/2022-wrx-exterior/products/molded-innovations-front-and-rear-emblem-kit-w-star-logo-2022-wrx
Got these and realized the front emblem does not fit the Noble Sport Grill. Description is confusing about this. What do you do with the trim piece that comes with the rear emblem?
We cannot comment on the fitment of the Noble Sport Grille as we've never used that grille or have experience with it. The Molded Innovations emblems fit all OEM fitment applications. Which trim piece are you talking about for the rear emblem? The rear emblem is very simple: Remove the factory emblem, and apply the Molded Innovations emblem in place.
@@mxt7407 This is for ease of demonstration. The factory emblems are typically very well secured when you go to remove it! A heat gun is your friend! Once your factory emblem is removed, make sure to clean the surface so that your replacement emblem sticks just as well!
Hey man, just a tip. If you pull the pin collar up with the pin as you pull it out it comes out super easy. No persuasion 🤘🏼
Thanks for the tip!
You all need to bring back all the emblem for every Subaru
Who else scratched up the bezel around the rear logo that’s part of the trunk
Yea idk how his sh*t came off that ez🥲
Me! Luckily it’s just a basic gloss black color on mine which can be touched up. 😅
Notice he took off an aftermarket one. Yeah my rear is bending all my trim tools even after being heated for 5 min
Yeah slightly!!!
Its a tight squeeze, thats for sure!
how similar is the install for a 2019 wrx . really been looking at the molded inovations emblem .
just heat the emblem with a heat gun and use a pry tool to get under the emblem. as long as you heat it up enough, it should come off pretty easily.
thank you
The installation is very similar, although the front does not require the bumper to come off
Haha awesome this came out at the perfect time
Thanks! Let us know if you have an additional questions. Its a very simple and straight forward installation

Ha that original back one was holding on with hopes and dreams
Definitely could have had better adhesion! Thats for sure
Can the emblems fit on Legacy models also?
These are specific to the 22+ WRX
is the sti portion of the grille removable? i see you don’t have it on the car

@@SubimodsOh right. I'm talking to the wrong people. It was from Import Image Racing. Not you guys.
@@billsanter Understood!
Are the tuning and modding possibilities the same for the spt Wrx as the manual? Or should I just get the manual?
I always recommend getting the manual version of the WRX to utilize the full potential of the car!
Do you have the front grill gloss black (same as the one in the video) in stock? What part # is it?

Will this fit the sports grill?
Yes they will! As long as the car is a 2022 or newer should fit.
@@Subimods Thanks
Rear emblem def doesnt pop off like that🤬 lol

All this to do an emblem! Lmao.
Thanks for looking!
