First post on here! Had my 01 Ford Ka collection for a few weeks now (first car to build up NCB plus had more poke and better nick then the Corsa B we test drove) I will get some pictures up on the readers car threads soon.

The rear badge has completely faded and I was wondering if anyone knew where I can get a cheap replacement that simply sticks on? Searches of eBay reveal most to be around £10, which was weird seeing as my Dad got a stick on replacement for his Saab of there for a coupe of quid!

Any help would be great!

DMB Graphics do the gel badges that stick over the old badge in many colours. wink

The original is not much money from Ford, it simply prises off and double sided tape already on the new badge makes it easy to fit new.

I replaced the rear badge on my wifes Ka. The genuine article cost £9.99 from a dealer when I got it but may be more now. Really simple to replace.

Thanks, I'll have a look! I might try down the local ford spares yard see of he's got anything as I need to get a parcel shelf for it as well.

It's not in bad nick for a 51 plate, the rust isn't too bad at the moment, the common rust around th filler cap has been treated and a leaky windscreen sorted which revealed a hidden hotel receipt in the headlining from a previous owner

The gel badge doesnt cover up the chrome surround which normally corrodes aswell.

Never had that issue in my 9 years of Ford ownership.

Ain't you lucky, my Transit needed a new rear badge because of this (2008) and so did my old one, my Fiesta Zetec S needed new front and rear badges too. Only the ST220 has decent badges front and rear and they are 10 years old now. I've seen 11 plate S-Max's with the front badges delaminated and missing.
