Default Nosecone badge

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.

Looks cool!

Cheers

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
