Mugen grill owners...sloppy emblem

Just finished washing the car and noticed the emblem (Honda "H" not the Mugen emblem) on my Mugen grill was super loose.

You can tighten it back up easily enough but just wanted to throw this out there. I looked around McMaster Carr for the exact type in hopes of locating a proper setting tool. No luck...

Anyway, I just unscrewed the main emblem body and found the smallest socket I could find and pushed down on the "split lock" washer. Still not snug like it was when I originally installed it. Not too cool for a 300 dollar grill...

If anybody can identify the proper name and a tool that's meant for this type of installation it would be much appreciated. Just don't want to mash it down and damage it. Yes, it's probably a 30 cent item but I want it to seat properly and don't want to do this every three months.



Thanks

M

I don't have the grill, but you can either use 3M mounting tape(the white one that looks kind of spongy) or you can get a nut close in diameter and thread it in(best option).
