+1.

Also, any idea what happened to the store you got all a lot of your parts from, Kingswood Country on ebay?

Sorry. Started a new job a few weeks back so been busy. Not sure what happened to Kingswood County. I dealt with them directly. Should have the finished badges but next week. Just the rear commodore one and maybe the front bar ones.

Still trying to get a hold of the badges. They’re done but hard to get a hold of at the moment.

In other news look what turned up on gumtree http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1113716656

It’s my old VH that I did the conversion to. Don’t know why the guy has added the VK Brock grille…

Is it just the boot badges you’ve had done so far?

It looks fantastic, but I really think it needs the door moulds back on it. It looks unfinished without them, like somebody stole them.

Finally received the first batch of rear commodore badges.

They have a minimum order of 35 though which I paid for and have in my hands! On a positive I’ve managed to get them for $150 each. If anyone is interested PM me or send me an email at sle881@hotmail.com. They will need double sided tape to fix them to your car. I’ve also asked for 35 matching SLE badges and the commodore front bar badges which should be done in a few weeks.

Sold any yet?

Is it the boot or grille SL/E badge your doing?

[SLE-881Participant SydneyDaily - 2012 VW Golf R Weekend - 1981 VH SL/E View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 81]

I’ve put one up on eBay at the moment to see what it could get. I need to sell them for $150 to cover my costs. I’m getting the rear SLE done to make sure it matches the Commodore badge.

Worth every cent to finish of the build I would have thought, but unfortunately often people don’t realise how much time/effort/$$ are involved in doing stuff like that.  They look great though, nice work.

[SLE355Participant View build HERE Member since: April 7, 2015 Posts: 119]

Nothing wrong with the price at all. I’m keen on the grille one, the Rare Spares one isn’t the right finish.

Managed to get an SLE badge last week. Only have one at the moment and I fitted it to the car.

Very happy with the results!!!

Just added double sided tape

A bit of a clean after it’s attached to make it nice and shinny!

 

 

Also managed to get the cost of the Commodore badge down. I’m hoping to be able to get the pair (Commodore and SLE) down to $150

Nice score mate, looking great.  The price of those badges seems very reasonable too I would have thought.

[SLE355Participant View build HERE Member since: April 7, 2015 Posts: 119]

Looks good mate, I’ll be removing mine soon so if i break them I’ll be buying a set.

Now for the SL/E grille badge

Already done.

No Holden badge on the grille though. I like the lone off centre SLE badge.

Haha nah i mean now for you to get them made, or you have?!

I agree, just the SL/E badge looks the best. I also cut out the mounting bit for the Holden badge.
