Finally a company that listens to what we say!

My Xpower octagons are a couple of years old now.The plastic coating does eventualy fail(took about 18 months)Best to put some lacquer around the edges.
I also had to use the number plate pads to fix mine on as the original backing wasn't man enough.
On my front badge I had to remove the resin dome & lacquer it

the rectangular badges are almost jelly coated, it's like a soft rubbery stuff as opposed to laquer.

They can't be any worse than the original ones! Both my ZR and ZS hat a total badge laquer failure after less than a year

Right, had an email back from Marco, the 95mm badges for the mk2 ZR and ZS will be expensive for him to produce, and would cost somewhere in the £20-£30 range. The only problem is he'd need to order a minimum of 500 badges from his supplier.

The TF LE500 style MG badge will be available soon.

All badges sold are made from base metals of either Zinc Alloy or COPPER unless otherwise stated, they have 0% iron content and will NOT rust. - this can be tested when you receive you badge and place a magnet near it - it will NOT stick proving there is 0% iron content.
