    The rear logo would cost you Rs. 625/-

    The logo on the alloy wheel would cost about Rs. 295/-

    I had lost both (the rear one multiple times) !!

    My both logo (Front & Rear) stolen when my car was at dealer's premises for accident job.

    Dealer gave me both logo FOC beacause logo were stolen when car was in his custody.

    But dealer did not hurt his pocket by giving logo FOC. He removed both logo of another GP & fixed to my car. I think staff of dealers are doing black-marketing of FIAT logo.

    Foolish Truck driver of Haryana dameged my rear left door completely when I was standing in Traffic-Jam

    Mumbai, Maharashtra or wherever Logo-theft are prevalent, if you want to take precaution rather than cure, use li'l Araldite as mentioned in beginning of this thread. It might affect a small bit of finishing around Logo but then your Logo's are safe & it gives you peace of mind.

    Haven't lost any of the logo's since starting of this thread (May'10 - more than a year !!!) :)

    There is also a clear colourless , liquid Araldite available in the market. Used for a variety of purposes. It is very high strength when it dries up and sets ; used it when there were some alterations to the granite in our kitchen.

    I think that'll be a better bet than the dark grey/black Araldite here.

    I purchased for645/- from the showroom last year.

    Actually I used the same technic as Italia last year when my front logo was stolen. I went ahead and applied Araldite in both the logos. I did not even applied those extra shots of coloring, its pretty neat. I can post some photos. Araldite helps in the sense, the thieves can not insert screw drivers in the crevises to remove it. Fortunately i have not lost any of my logos subsequently....fortunately...
