Review on All Sales 96100K Grille Emblem by Bennie Wilks

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good but could be better

I bought these for a 2010 Silverado to replace the original badges (both torn inside). You look good, but I have a few complaints. First, for the front emblem, the washers that came with it were too small for the mounting studs. They just didn't fit. I have a collection of pucks on hand so finding the right ones wasn't difficult, but that's really a problem that shouldn't be. In addition, the thread for the mounting bolts was not cut cleanly. It took some careful work and cleaning to get them in without cross threads. This is another quality control issue that could have easily been avoided. As for the rear emblem, the included double-sided tape is rubbish. It's too thick (other customers have mentioned that it leaves a noticeable gap between the emblem and the tailgate). The glue is acceptable but not perfect. Do yourself a favor and purchase 3M mounting tape from Revain or another retailer. Other than that, the finishes are good and they look good on the car. The front is easy to assemble, but that's more of a GM factor than an emblem maker. I like them, but the above issues are annoying. I can't confirm the durability of the finish as I haven't owned it long enough, but judging by the look and the smoothness of the powder coating I'm optimistic. These are far superior to some of the cheapest replacement emblems and vinyl tape. For what you get it's worth it.

Pros
  • Installation instructions included
Cons
  • Not all will fit
