Hey Dan, this is off topic but I noticed this on my JCG today. Are the "tips" on your tailpipes pretty much parallel/center with their opening in the bumper? Mine are angled down. Kind of hard to tell in your pic of the white JGC.
I looked and didn't notice anything that would be considered "off"...it all looks aligned correctly on mine.
I did see that the "4x4" badge is a bit lower then the Summit badge on the other side....so centers line up. I may have to get a new 4x4 badge to move it up so the HEMI badge won't look low....will have to tape it up once I get it and see...
I had that one on my 2011 LTD and it did look good.
I ordered a HEMI badge last night part 68028278AB for my 2014. Its 41/2" long and 3/4" tall. I may look to put this under the 4X4 and leave the Overland badge as is on the right side.
Would be cool if you moved Summit under 4x4, and put 5.7L and HEMI on the other side. But that's just me. I'm just glad I'm not the only one who adds badges.
You don't wanna know how many I've added in various places. 2 4x4 badges and 2 Trail Rated badges. Oh and a Jeep badge under the hood on the air cleaner assembly.

Where did you put the Trail Rated badges? Opposite side of the factory one? My MY'14 Limited didn't come with one ( post number#4648392) and was looking to put one on the back ( just like this OP with the Hemi Badge)
While slightly off the HEMI badge topic, this may be the place to ask the question what to put in place of the LIMITED badge on a 3.6L.
I love the look of the Summit and Overland badge designs, so rather than just have the word LIMITED, I would like to put something there that represents Jeep or a nice style emblem with a type of graphic that has the word Limited or represents the United States as its heritage.
The flag was my other option under the limited? I hate stickers, so still trolling the web for a nice chrome emblem of some sort.
I'm not sure it goes that well. I like it on the Black Overland because it goes well under the 5.7L and balances both sides, but the "HEMI" doesn't blend well with 4X4 on the new GC.
The HEMI badge is a tad smaller than I thought it would be but does balance with the SUMMIT badge on the other side that tapers. So far, I like it. It is parallel and centered directly 1/2" under the 4x4 badge (the angle and curves in the photo may not look like it though from that angle, but it is). The larger HEMI I had on my 2011 black GC would go nice too but is sorta big and may look too big and not balanced forcing me to lower the SUMMIT badge (which means buying a new one). So this works for me.
Yea or Nay? Bueller..... Bueller..... Bueller..... Bueller..... Bueller..... Anybody.....
Was just looking for opinions and feedback on the small HEMI badge I installed. My thought was the larger HEMI is a different font than the existing 4x4 font and doesn't look like a badge so much as it does words to the mixed font would look a bit odd. The small HEMI badge is definitely a "badge" so the interior letters don't look odd even though they are a different font from the 4x4 font.
But then I see the "EcoDiesel" badge under the 4x4 on other GC's and it is much larger and looks great....wish there was a great HEMI badge like the EcoDiesel.
Maybe I'll switch to the HEMI badge that was under the 5.7L on my old GC since the mixed font looks fine....opinions?
This is the one that I used on my Black 2014 RWD Overland. I put it on the left side where the 4X4 badge would have gone. Looks very nice like it was an OEM installed badge, lots on good comments from my Jeep friends. :thumbsup:
I just ordered a 55079103AA HEMI badge. Not sure if it is different from the 4806328AA HEMI badge or not. But Jeep Grand Cherokee WK - Badges and nameplates said 55079103AA is the part number for the Jeep GC HEMI badge when they used to put it on (until they got gas guzzler gun-shy) so that's what I ordered even though few dollars more and harder to find online.
When I get the new HEMI badge I'll see if I like it better or not...probably will though and will post once installed.
