I'm after a new Griffith badge for the back of my car as the one it has currently has been painted over and quite frankly looks Orrible !!

Where can i go to get a new one. Its just a plain Griffith badge i'm after not a Griffith 500 one...

Many thanks...

Probably pick one up on eBay, can't see any at the minute though..

Probably better to order one from Leven..

I'd still go chrome personally
You can get the black backgrounds made up to be a different colour. I've got a blue/gold Cerbera Speed Six badge whcih I suspect came from Leven Tech..

Its not quite as it sounds. I'm pretty sure there has been paintwork on the rear but thats been done near perfectly. Its the fact the badge has been sprayed a dark grey colour so it blends in more with the dark blue of the car. Personally i dont like it and want an original shiny badge on the back !

Go the Leven route, as you will struggle to get hold of a good non-500 rear badge. I had mine done through them and it looks great, final finish is dependant on the condition of your badge though. They 'may' not be able to get rid of all the pitting in the metal depending on how deep it goes. However, once on the car this won't show anyway unless someones got their nose right up your backend!!

As we strip, polish and re-plate most of the pitting will be removed.
Major dents, damage or sinking where the studs have been over tightened will remain.
However, due to the clear coating any marks are virtually invisable when the badge is fitted.

Cheers for the info. I spoke to someone at Leven at the end of last week about getting my badge done. My cars with Perry at the V8 Centre currently. He's sending me the badge and I will be getting it off to you shortly
