Since the car is being repainted, I think it might be a good idea to get fresh badges! The front/back are easy enough -- but where do you guys get the side ones?

Measure them and then search for that size on eBay.

Thanks, was just wondering if there were 'good' vs 'bad' versions on ebay, prices varies a lot!

Ended up buying the spanish version :)

Have you thought of trying the dealer. I have been very surprised by what parts, especially trim items the dealers can still supply at surprisingly reasonable prices. I do know my local dealer well and have a favourable discount. However I have recently bought various trim pieces and clips considerably cheaper than eBay

I’ve found that the badges can be really variable quality - some after market ones I’ve had were great and others not so, worth keeping in mind that depending on price they can be replaced if they don’t last long as original, so you can keep different styles ie all black inseatd of blue and black and change as you fancy.

However it all became a bit much for me so I just had all the badges removed and recesses filled. No longer an issue for me :whistle:
