400 wheel badges.

[d p]

I took the 400 to Knebworth house classic car show today. Parked it up and went for a wander. When i returned one of the TVR logo's in the wheel centres had gone! Does anyone know where i can get a replacement. Any help would be appreciated.

If you are talking about the flat discs with TVR in the middle the factory have some left.
Does anyone have the Email addy for TVR spares department?

I made some out of black perspex .. there was a thread about it ages ago ( christmas time. ).

Theres a good tip here in the maintenance section.

'Sikoflex' - sounds like this would do the job of bonding the mounting ring back onto my headlamp (www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=54194&f=12&h=0). Who stocks it? Ideally local to Farnham, Surrey. A search on the Web didn't turn up a stockist.

Thx - Streaky

Had a similar problem myself with the badges - if and when the factory do run out - Autographix in Poulton-le-Fylde did the original wheel badges for the 400, they confirmed they would be able to make some new ones up with a scan of an original off one of the remaining wheels - not expensive either if memory serves.

Streaky - for the Silkoflex would suggest a local boat yard would be able to source some for you.

I had some TVR wheel centres made up recently for the aftermarket 17" items on my car. Call Steve Morgan at Morgan Associates - He has the TVR logo on file and can make the badges any size with/without border, any backing and in the case of mine put a gently domed resin facing on them to give a plastic outer look. Four for £20 + dreaded vat - 01268-288587 or [e-mail].
