I got the badge which is actually on the rear of the car now, but I got it from ( I am pretty sure ) @marcusb, he either makes them or had them made I forget now.

It's the WESTFIELD script one as per what the factory did.

There was quite a few at Stoneleigh, I'm sure @marcusb will respond shortly..........................

@Jim RS- that’s a generous offer, thanks, but I’ve decided to go for plastic (as you have). I think the plus factors of no rust and improved airflow/ cooling make it the right choice. Do you have a Westfield badge on yours and, if so, where did you get it from? Cheers, D.

I did it the hard way by seperating it from the old grill, painted it then bonded it to the plastic - lot of hard work. At Stoneleigh someone was selling positive or negative ss laser cut items for £10 each but I can't remember who, was some still left over. Mines still a bit tatty as experimenting with cooling, seems all good now🙂P1040533.JPG.0625622b9482044d9d1367c84f8afc59.JPG

Yep, Marcus can supply the badges, normally.

 

The main problem with the stock grill, (apart from not the greatest cooling) is the usual poor powder coating. You can have them blasted back to bare metal and powder coated properly, and they will last much, much longer.

 

Or, of course a plastic one will last ages and be cheap to replace if it gets stone pick marked etc…
