LE 80 Badge 1331/1600 has been stolen last week. Is there a chance of ordering a new badge? According the Dutch MG dealer there is no parts number, The badges are made in one run for this edition. No possibility to order a new one.  |

sorry to hear this shocking news!  on a positive note, anything can be made - it's having the resources and knowhow, or the money for someone else's resources and knowhow!  could it be computer generated, and then printed, and then a badge created??? |

Hi,sorry to hear your news. Did they take the whole of the badge or just the centre bit?
I have been able to replicate some badges in vinyl to stick over existing back plates. Will help if I can.

Hi Stu and Ad I'm hoping the backplate should be the easy bit to remake!! |

guess there's two options for the badge bit : - 1 - buy a second hand one (from any ltd edition F or TF), and recreate the correct proper badge as per stuarts method 2 - turn up a badge body, out od aluminium or stainless steel on a lathe, and recreate the correct proper badge as per stuarts method |
