That would depend if it's going on an actual S8 or not...

Re: 1997 Audi S8 Rear Badge Position
Yes, an actual S8. In fact, it is already on the car, but I'm convinced it
is on the wrong place.
Of course, there is more than a badge to distinguish an S8.

I hope this isn't the return of "Charles Purple C5" with the A8 that
turned into a S8 in a mere two weeks....

Re: 1997 Audi S8 Rear Badge Position
Any chance of getting a reply to simple question without all this scepticism
and sarcasm?
What do I have to do? Post a copy of the registration document to satisfy
everyone? Make the car avaliable for inspection to the S-badge
inspectorate?

Why not, sounds like a really good idea to me, anyway. But, does such an
inspectorate really exist? If not, we could start one, could we not? Well,
anyway, my point is just to leave the badge where it is, and not worry about
it any more.................. Or ask a (local) Audi dealership, or try to
find somebody else with an S8.

ok, we deserved that
Have you had no luck in finding pictures on the web of prototypical S8's to
see where they have their badges located?

You want free info, and you got some. Why complain?

Look for some publicity photos of the rear of the car (front,
whatever.) Shouldn't be tough to find - the internet is a wonderful
thing. Compare photos to your car.
Just be glad that this didn't degenerate into a Netiquette discussion
over top-posting.

Re: 1997 Audi S8 Rear Badge Position
Thanks for all the responses - picture link etc., although I have to admit I
don't know what "top-posting" is.
I appreciate that wanting the precise badge position may seem a bit OTT, but
I dislike badges being in the wrong place - especially BMW 5 series when the
badge gets stuck up at the top of the bootlid instead of on the line half
way down. Anyway, I may take your advice and remove it altogether (anyone
want to buy an S8 badge?) but I thought that doing this on the front left a
blank piece of black plastic on the radiator grill.
Thank you.

Haven't you heard you get what you pay for? No refunds given.
Personally I don't care if your S8 is real or not, that's is something
you have to deal with yourself if is or not. The emblem on my old '98
A8 looked just fine so I couldn't really answer your specific question
and that is why I didn't respond to you directly.
Now if you would like to know how I turned my Jeep Cherokee into a Range
Rover with some cool Rover emblem's, I'll be more than happy to show you
how I did it
