Here is my badge that I made from artwork supplied by stot. It looks really good. Planning to have some smaller ones made for the wheels as well.

Thats was a weird de-ja-vu feeling, I remember sending you some artwork but didn't realize that 'R'oadster version was on it. :o

Looks cool! :cool:

Doesn't look as good as your new version but I'm happy with the result.

There was a company at donnington who made domed badges so they did this for me.

If anyone wants one they can have the order number to get one

About £8 plus postage.

There is a way of getting them cheaper but you need to order 30

I have emailed the lady to see if she can offer a group buy discount.

I need another 4. 1 for each wheel centre.

49mm from memory. Can check it later. You can have them any size though.

I placed it on the nose one this morning to see what it looks like and the size looked about right. I picked the same size as the gbs and lotus ones.

I might get a roadster one done for the rear as well. Black background, silver text on rectangle base

I was thinking one on the nose cone and one set into gearstick knob would look tidy

I have spoken to Heko (the company that made the badge for me) and they have offered the following discount.

If 35 are ordered the price would be 4.80 each plus postage. I will have them delivered on bulk to me and then post them out to you direct as their postage is a tad pricey!

I am going to order another 4 for my wheel centres. If you are interested please reply to this. If we get 35 I will order them.

Im going to talk to a local sign writer as well to see if a deal can be done on stripes for the bonnet and a plaque to go on the dash showing builder etc. similar to a caterham superlight.

1-4 David Bolam.

Hello.

I think the badges have arrived ( my postman is useless) and put a card through the door saying I wasn't in (he must have forgotten to ring the bell). The same postie who didn't deliver the last parcel as there was a loose dog in the street. (Most likely a load of cr4p as well)

I will try and get along and stand in the queue tomorrow or Tuesday

Sorry for the delay
