toon_jeff Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I am trying to find somewhere selling metal Union Jack car badges - the ones about 5cm long with screw fixings on either side. Can anyone point me to a supplier ? How much do they charge for them ? What is the quality of the badges like ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Martyr Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Make certain you insulate the chrome/steel from the aluminium skin our you will create a simple cell that causes a nasty corrosion patch - I speak from expereince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon_jeff Posted April 26, 2005 Author Share Posted April 26, 2005 To stop the corrosion problem would it be better to go for the union jack badges which have a strong self-adhesive sticky tape on the back rather than the ones which are screwed on ?

toon_jeff Posted May 4, 2005 Author Share Posted May 4, 2005 Thanks for the offer - I wanted a pair of them so didn't want to be cheeky and ask you for two!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul jacobs Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I've got a coupel of stick on plastic ones, very light, and strong adhesive. Bought them at a kit car show a couple of years ago for about £6.00 the pair. Don't forget to place them exactly where the corner of the sidescreen touches the bonnet, to save the paint or ali. skin. It is also the perfect position to enhance the looks too. Paul J. Hard work never killed anyone ........ but why take the chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
