i like all the way down, or just to the end of the hood. i think anything part-way onto the bumper cover is much more difficult to execute properly. all the way down is much more racecar, whereas just to the end of the hood is more of a club racer look.

So, I noticed your badge gasket is not surrounding the badge as it's supposed to. They seem like they are too small, so warm it and stretch it around the badge off the car, then reinstall.

LOL It was just setting on the car. I just have been trying to get to fit around the badge when I saw your post. Their site says to cut off the edge of the gasket to use the old one.
Did you buy a new gasket?

Thanks

Yes. I also cut the center hole to help expand it a bit. Without the gasket it is easy to pop the badge posts.
