So what do I need, and where do I get it?

Post by VanillaThunder »

Here's what I need to fix. I've seen the whole Pinnn badge, including the crown, gasket, etc.. But I don't know what I need to complete what's already there, just the Pinn badge, no crown, no surround. Is this possible/available? I've looked everywhere.

Would appreciate input.

that original badge had a plastic insert that faded in about one year. I offer a zinc plated badge with hard enamel that will not fade for $20 each.

My 80 spider had none. I bought a couple from Mark. Nice pieces. But, the badge must need the rubber backing to fit the body holes I assume. Otherwise the badge sticks out from the body. Am I correct?

I went with this full kit that has the enameled metal badges, gaskets and retainers:

The online pictures do not do them justice.
