New rear badge fitted

[Taphouse]

I think fresh badges make such a big difference, I need to get some for my current car.

where did you get these?

Looking good Pete ... (Apart from all the yellow that is).

Just got one from Leigh for the back and a standard one for the front should turn up in the post today.

New badges (and number plates for that matter) do make a big difference IMHO.

I've given up on new badges, been through a few as they don't last. Still got the stick on version going strong on the rear and an alloy on the front.

Just ebayed it. Have to watch out for size etc. I went for the genuine Rover one for the rear and have just ordered a front one.

Not sure if you have to cut the locations pegs off the front one, see when I get the new one and pull the original one off.

Leaving the badge facing the sun makes the adhesive soften up, put a couple of credit cards under the rear one. Stuck on with masking tape, then put a wide paint scraper underneath and then it just pulled off.

Had the badge for a year, just chickened out in case I scratched/damaged the paint but it came off OK.

Took more time to get the old adhesive off, I used white spirit and then re-polished it. Marked the center point on the masking tape, but you can see where the old badges fit.
