Evening All,

Although I have a MK2 Rover 75, I have always preferred the grille badge on the Mk1... so decided to change the faded Mk2 badge for a MK1

I guess this could be a "Marmite" thing for some people but I like it.

Cheers

Maurice

So... as the Mk1 badge is bigger than the Mk2 recess, how did you fit yours?


I bought one of the "sticker" type Mk2 ones off eBay as suggested, but it's poor quality and the finish started to flake off in less than a year...

Send Midas a pm on here or if on Facebook then send a message to AlBonnies badges. They make good quality stick on badges. The ones on Banana have been there for over 6 years without fading, front and back. The Bear’s new MG badges have been on 5 years and still look like new.

They also made the wheel centres for Redfive which Rick has now fitted after having the wheels refurbished.
