I got one of these badges the other day, thanks to Allan. I'm keen to get a few more, but not sure where to find them or the badge bars. Any ideas?

Not sure on the supply of the badges, as they sold so quickly,
but you can get bar kits on ebay:

The kit on ebay is about $65 not including postage for the UK. Not cheap for a couple of clips and a chrome bar.

Anyone else know of an Australian supplier?

You start by putting up more pics of your car!! :lol: Then you contact Allan (LS1380) and see if there are any left. There was a limited number of them made I believe.

Was browsing and came across this old post.

An old bloke once told me years ago they used to use 2 of the over-rider bars off the cooper bumper, a left and a right, and join them in the middle to make a bar, and them mount that on the bumper. I thought that sounded really neat!
