Did yours come with a VIS racing badge/sticker as well? Mine didn't come with one of those either.

Mine didn't come with a VIS badge. I'm glad it didn't. I bought it, I shouldn't have to advertise for them.

I take it the badge is on the underside of the hatch, right? Kind of like how their badge on hoods is where the hood latch meets the hood (obviously on the underside)?

Correct, as far as I know anyways. The pictures posted earlier in this thread show the underside of the hatch with the VIS Racing Badge. Mine didn't come with a badge or mounting points for the hatch shocks. Though it does have all the mounting points for the factory interior pieces.

I was asking about the location of the badge...it's on the underside, right? Ie, you can't see it w/ the hatch closed, right??

EDIT: Damn...stupid me..., I shouldn't ask you, since you don't have the badge, so you prob. wouldn't know where it is on the hatch lol...

I sent Gargamel the pics.. I can't host them; hopefully he can. There's pretty good shots of the fitment and the fiber pattern (if that matters... I'd paint it). It's a pretty badass piece from what I could tell. Curious to see it with the lexan and hardware installed..

The spots you see are tape residue.

Also, the hatch is NOT mounted. It's just laying there.
