I can't stand any badges on my cars.they look a lot better with none IMHO,they are just things that trap dirt behind em,and are harder go clean.

I like badges. Since getting my car I have a union flag badge on the front grill alongside my members club badge.

I have put 2 little Rover badges on the black plastic quarters behind the rear doors.
On the rear I replaced the boot badge with a splendid Humphshumphs badge and replaced the union flag as the old one was faded. I liked that so much I added a union flag under the V6 badge at the opposite side.
On the number plate I added a union flag GB badge to my 'smiley'.

Then of course I just had to add the 2.5 ltr torpedoes.

The good thing is there is still plenty of car to add badges to as I find them.

I don't think mine looks overbadged at all. It was just meant as a a jovial post really, you can add quite a number of badges without spoiling the look, also the early cars had the rear black plastic quarter (C pillar) badges and torpedos fitted at manufacture

I bought a new combination badge for the back of my ZT as the original had no paint on it.

What do you stick them on with though?

Hi Neil, all mine are stuck on with the black double sided foam tape you can buy on the 'bay. Very firm once in place.

The one I used was like... this..., can't remember exactly which trader I used but looks the same.

Took mine off, and the CDTI one on the other side - looks much tidier
