p34nut Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 They come with 3M tape backing - feels nice and strong. Is that how the originals are fixed? Just curious as I'm looking to flush it off rather than change the badge Quote
ilogikal1 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Is that how the originals are fixed? Just curious as I'm looking to flush it off rather than change the badge I don't know about the '70, but on the '50 the front on all cars is just stuck on as is the rear on the roadsters, but the rear on the coupes also has two locating pins so there's two holes.

sipar69 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 I struggled a bit with getting the rear badge off - it snapped. D'oh. No damage to the paint though. Suppose I can always buy another one if I ever need to return the car to the stock look. Quote
PS13Silvia Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Changed my badges over before Japfest last weekend, here's a comparison of old vs new. On the new set I applied some sealant this time round, so shall see how long these ones last. Quote
GIXXERUK Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 sealed mine when i put them on but after winter they looked rough, after a wash and polish the came up as good as new Quote
sipar69 Posted May 22, 2015 Author Posted May 22, 2015 Highly recommend this for the car as a whole, not just badges. Really good stuff. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/sealants/chemical-guys-jet-seal-109/prod_484.html Quote
JoshC Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Love the set you got on yours Sipar! Don't think they suit my car sadly! Think I'll get the other Z ones and plasti dip them! Quote
sipar69 Posted May 31, 2015 Author Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) Thanks Josh. I think they would look good on a blue Z. Happy to take some close up shots if it would help. Edited May 31, 2015 by sipar69 Quote
ziglo Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Hi Sipar, Where can I buy those badges buddy ? they look great on your 370! Cheers Jamie Quote
sipar69 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Posted June 19, 2015 Hi Ziglo You're in luck - check out Tarmac Sportz in the professional trader area of the forum. I believe he's just got a new batch in. They're not cheap but really good quality and they look great. Quote
