Warhon3 Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 Anyone any idea where to purchase a boot badge like this? I have tried all avenues including eBay etc but can’t seem to find anything remotely similar apart from a vinyl sticker. Also looking a metal version for the front grill if anyone can steer me in the right direction Many thanks. Quote

Richard (OldStager) Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 That's one badge sorted, any other takers here? ( or should that be givers, lol ) 1 Quote
Ansoeb Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 You could try getting in touch with Toybox cars, they have lots of bits tucked away 1 Quote
Richard (OldStager) Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 I do find it odd the new shop doesn't sell these, despite having a photo of a car with it on... Maybe they have run out too?. Quote

DarrenK Posted May 14, 2024 Posted May 14, 2024 I wanted one as well and found this.... You'll just need to find someone willing to knock this up on a 3D printer 👍 Thank @Quinten for creating and putting out there to download 😎 1 Quote

Unless of course ( and I'm not into them to know otherwise) they also can do metal now as well as plastic. Although I guess a plastic one well prepared and painted up would look cool. 2 Quote

Richard (OldStager) Posted May 14, 2024 Posted May 14, 2024 Likewise and I live by the sea, you only have to show a steel bolt to my air and it's brown in a hour or so, not a joke I did it once to test. 2 Quote
Quinten Posted May 14, 2024 Posted May 14, 2024 You should be able to give this attached DXF file to someone with a laser cutter. Westfield.dxf.zip 1 2 Quote

Yep agreed, stainless would be ideal. I've had mine painted white to match the body colour (and to contrast the grille). Quote
