One of the details I document for each BJ8 in the registry is the type =
of nose badge it has.  As we know, later cars had painted badges and =
some owners have claimed that their badge was always plain chrome -- no =
color at all.  I started out describing the early badges as =
"cloisonn=C3=A9".  Then someone pointed out the difference between =
cloisonn=C3=A9 and champlev=C3=A9, so I changed all the nomenclature to =
champlev=C3=A9.  Both cloisonn=C3=A9 and champlev=C3=A9 refer to =
techniques, not the material -- which is vitreous enamel.  So, that is =
the description I'm using now.

=20

The BMC parts manual gives only one part number for the BJ8 nose badge =
so there is no change point from one type of badge to another.  =
Recording this detail simply provides some data to help improve our =
knowledge of change points.

Yes, these are the absolute Go To people. Used to call themselves =
PamelaDavid and were pretty much non-digital.

They described my MkII badge as cloisonn=C3=A9 but they may have assumed =
that I didn=E2=80=99t know the difference.

They were indeed backlogged but it was worth it. 6+/- weeks.

While I normally wouldn't contradict Michael--he's a pro and I'm an =

anyway, which were painted--is Champlev=C3=A9:
