Small Arosa badge

[1gear]

Im after a small badge that says Arosa to go on my front grill. I want to de badge it with the big S, and have Arosa in small on one of the side grills. Maybe it will look ok, maybe not.
Anyone know where i can get one? Or if anyone has one lieing around?

There aren't any available that attach to the front grill, you'll need to make one. I think I have the one I removed from the back of mine somewhere if you'd like it for the cost of postage.

You need 15 (i think) posts before you can PM people. Let me check I actually have the badge first (it's somewhere in the loft I think, but it's been a while)! And by the time I do that you may have enough, otherwise I'll get you my email addy.

Will the badges on the back of the MK2 just come off with abit of heat? Take it the heat from a hair dryer is enough, or do i need a heat gun?

The name and model badges will, but not the big 'S' one due to it being the handle!

A heat gun is easier as it will warm the glue faster, but be careful not to get the paint too hot. Try it with a powerful hairdryer first if you don't have a heat gun easily to hand - it may give out enough heat (i've done it with just hot water when i wasn't so worried about the paint underneath!)

Use dental floss in a sawing motion to cut the glue/sticky pad and clean up with a bit of tar remover
