I had my car outside for a few months leading up to winter and it killed off the rear "griffith" badge. THe plastic has more or less fallen off and gone pretty opaque.

A quick peek and I'm seeing prices of ~£100 for a badge (Gold Griffith badge), which seems a bit steep. Also I seem to remember reading somewhere that they tend not to last - is this true or my memory playing tricks??

I clearly need one and am just worrying about it. Can someone put me straight, if I just go out and buy one will it last or should I be looking for a particular type/manufacturer?

The Leven ones are good quality as they are resin finished. This also helps to stop the annoying build up of wax for those that wash there cars.


Google Leven Technologies.
