Anybody give me a good steer for new badges. Just had car repainted and its looking fab, except for the old tatty bonnet and boot badges. Seen some for 38 quid each which seems a little steep! or are they all that price. Also it has been mentioned that ones with union jack motif inside can be had.
lastly what about the union jack badges, the small square ones for under the side indicator repeaters. Seen them added to some cars and may go for them too.
Thoughts please

The Union Jack ones in both sizes were made up by somebody on here late 2006 - not sure if any were left over..... Also only self-adhedsive fixing not studs as norm with S series.

Do TVR carparts stock the bonnet and tail badges ? Flea bay / PH classifieds also good places to search.

Or Leven could refurb those you have maybe ? And lacquer them so they last a bit longer - Leven option isn't super-cheap and takes a while but worth it IMHO.

Union Jack badges with studs on Ebay

I have mine with the Scottish Saltire and are good quality.

I had my original TVR badges refurbished by Leven and it was worth every penny.

Another vote here for the refurbed Leven option, they look great and should wear well.

I use the enamel-look stick-on type badges.

They look good and no holes in the GRP.
Cheap and widely available.

Still undecided on that.... but we did finally order the Bugaboo in TVR Purple.


Bugaboo = expensive posh pushchair. Not 'strictly' TVR purple, but fairly close....
