Does anybody know where to get a new set of TVR wheel badges for the later wedge cross spoke alloys. Aparently TVR does not stock or make them any longer. I have tried fitting the new style (cerbera) type but it does not fit the recess in the silver centre hub. MIke Mica Blue 350i

That sounds a bit 'heath Robinson' for me, but a good idea no less. The rims are a bit scuffed as well and I was thinking of changing the rims all together for something a bit newer looking. I was looking through the pages of an old sprint and come across a pic of a 350i with what looked like Griffith 5 spoke OZ wheels. If I am going to look for replacements is there anything I need to look out for in particular?? - the correct 'off set' for instance (whatever that is??). Mike Mica Blue 350i

Just in case anybody is interested (and I guess there might be judging by the amount of wedges I saw at Combe without badges) I heard today that Wedge Automotive is fabricating some badges up. Should fit most wedges and should be available in about a month. Mike Mica Blue 350i

I haven't tried Autographix yet, but apparently TVR produced several different sizes. and the size that fitted mine is no longer stocked. In the meantime, another wedge owner has came up with a better idea which I shall be putting on the wedge site. www.tvrwedgepages.co.uk (soon!) Mike Mica Blue 350i
