vr6monkey 1 Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) If anyone needs a grill badge, someone is selling a red VR6 badge in fair condition on eBay for £50. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CORRADO-VR6-RED-GRILL-BADGE-EXTREMLEY-RARE-/132268094149?hash=item1ecbcaf2c5:g:SnsAAOSwgDRZcRAW OEM badges seem to go for silly money nowadays, so at that price I'm guessing it will sell pretty quick? EDIT - I'm guessing the seller is a Corrado fan as he is also selling the original Corrado roof bars - I used to have a set of them, not that I would put anything on my Corrado roof nowadays :-) Edited July 20, 2017 by vr6monkey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR-Sixy 0 Posted July 21, 2017 £50.00 is still silly money for a piece of plastic....... not forgetting the £5.50 postage........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6monkey 1 Posted July 21, 2017 £50.00 is still silly money for a piece of plastic....... not forgetting the £5.50 postage........ I agree - £50 for a small amount of plastic seems crazy. But how much does someone pay for an OEM VR6 badge that is the 'finishing touch', especially when you can't buy them anymore? I suppose it depends on how much you want OEM vs replica (not that I have seen a perfect replica??). Personally £50 would definitely be upper limit for an OEM badge - lucky I already have one. At the end of the day, we love these cars and seem happy to spend time, effort and LOTS OF MONEY keeping them on the road and looking good. The secret is - don't tell the wife how much it costs ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I assume you used something similar to the one used on Wheeler Dealers? Having been pointed to Renewart for fog/indicator protectors, I noticed he does some pretty cool replica badges. Not sure how much? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any info on fog and indicator protectors I'm after a set, do they fit okay. I don't do Facebook so would need contact details. Okay found them.. look okay... any email details for this guy. Does he speak English or is it a google translate into Spanish Edited July 21, 2017 by delfinis38 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delfinis, I've sent Renewart a message, but in fairness its Friday pm so don't expect to hear back until next week. If they are a sensible price (shipped from Spain), I'm going to order a set and can let you what I think of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically, if you went to your local graphics /sign writers shop , they will scan it for you . Then you have the correct size sticker to place on the top .

KIPVW 0 Posted August 8, 2017 I would love a new old stock grill badge and would be happy to pay over the odds too within reason. So yeah of it adds a finishing touch why not. Sent from my SM-A310F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
