Guys, I've got one of these badges at home;




Can anyone tell me what model they came off? from memory I got it off a 1200 coupe a while ago.

Also is there anywhere that sells them new? and does anyone have a pic of the back? mine is missing the screws.

Thanks

off a metal grill in a sedan

Thanks for that, are they rare or popular?

I'm considering getting them reproduced if there is a market for them.

alot of people take them off the metal grills, looks better IMO
so there should be lots foating around for the people that want to keep them on the grill

wouldnt say they are really rare...or that popular

They aren't rare, but like-new ones are rare. Should be a good market for them especally if you can keep the price down around $50. They are red, white, and blue enamel.

There was a new one on ebay yesterday with buy it now for $150 inc delivery.

Getting the colours on them would have to make them $200/piece to hand make, unless you have good contacts in china.

Oh ok, does anyone have a good pic of a painted or NOS one?

here u go champ.

I also got a S one too. That's the one I put on my Datto.

Thanks guys that's great, anyone got a pic of the back so I can see the screws, mine seems to be missing them.

Forgot to add, anyone have issues with firefox and this forum? never lets me login.... Have to revert back to internet exploder.
