I love that look. I have the black carbon fiber K emblems for my moss telluride. I wish they had these to match the moss paint!

NOT SURE but I think if you play a little bit the emblem can be separate and paint the background they are $30 so can try also many colors on ebay but None like the moss you want

I'm still waiting on my snow white telluride, but where did you buy these from? On the telluride shop I don't see any with the white background. Also, are these overlays or did you have to replace the emblem all together? Thanks

I should have the WHITE emblems in the forum store next week...

Installed the Vintage K badges this morning and I absolutely LOVE the look. Had a little hiccup during the rear badge install where I chipped the paint a little. Ran up to the dealership and got a touch up stick for $21 and now you can’t even notice it.

@Telluride Forum - I made a video but need to do some editing before it’s ready. Are you still looking for one?

Front badge removal video.
This fellow's a tad rough (plus he puts crap on his hood!), but I followed his instructions and had no problem getting the front clips off. Back is much easier - just gentle prying with a flat plastic tool.

Here’s a picture of the left end. It’s unfortunately not tight against the emblem like it is on the right. Not sure if the overlay was too flat and the strength of the 3M wasn’t strong enough to keep it tight against the emblem. It looks like I’m going to have to try and get some kind of additional adhesive in there to hold it down.

The wheel caps went on easier (other than kneeling on the hot pavement) and look good.

How did this end up working out for you after further review?

Don't use any kind of tools to remove the front badge to avoid damage ----- Simply insert your finger thru the grill behind the lower and the side of the badge and pull it

Whatever it takes! You should get some interesting looks now that the SUV has some unusual badges on there.

You were definitely right. It’s hilarious to see the stare downs and eye squinting when people walk by it in the parking lot

It does make things interesting! And the Telluride is a head-turner as it is - so lots of people will be staring. Hopefully it doesn't cause any accidents on the road.

@Telluride Forum Sal - I believe I ordered the Vintage K - are they badges or overlays? Also when are they shipping?

 

[JenB]

LOL ... No problems Sal. I just wanted to make that 'girls can change out badges too video'

This girl did it! I replaced All with the 7 overlay kit

The only thing I'm waiting on at this point are the Vintage K "metal skin" overlays for the front and rear. The wheel caps and steering wheel emblems have arrived - but the front and rear pieces - each piece had an imperfection due to a defect in the mold. The manufacturer started over and we're probably looking at another week or two before they're ready to ship...

If you ordered the full replacement pieces (which would be the front and rear - as those are the only parts that come as replacements), you'd have them already. The full replacement pieces are in stock, if you'd prefer to switch to those...
