Basically I changed both the front and rear badges to the ones found on the Peugeot RCZ that have the new Peugeot corporate logo.I hate to say but the old badges, especially the front badge, do look a tad boring. For me, the new lion logo is more dynamic looking and has a very "Motion & Emotion" feel to it.
Whereas the old lion logo has a more classic look, simple and elegance maybe a little bit too plain if one has to nitpick. It seems like Peugeot is using the same design, even down to the same size and shape, for most of the front badges on their cars. The front badges on the 308 and 207 are probably identical, even the Peugeot Partner van uses the same front badge. Not hard to see why it would be easy to get a little bored with the way it looks.
Installing the front badge is really a challenge, not very pleasant partly because I cannot figure out if it can be done without removing the front bumper or not,. Therefore, I ended up removing the whole front bumper which is very time consuming. However I got to say the end result do make all the sweat and hair pulling worthwhile, the new front badge does seem to make the front end look a little cleaner.
As for the rear badge, installation it is very simple and can be done with ease. All you have to do is center it and make sure it is positioned correctly, the adhesive tape will take care of the rest. In fact, I found it a little too easy to remove the old badge so be careful where you park your car. It is easy for anyone to nick it off our cars. Just don't get any funny ideas.
Looking forward to doing the same modification on the Peugeot 3008, if and when it gets here. Of course, it would still depend on the new parts being available.
