Before getting my BN4 badge restored at Pamela David's, I bought a Repro fro=
m one of the usual suppliers. Within a year parts of the red glass inlay had=
 fallen out revealing shiny chrome plate beneath.  No wonder there was no ad=
hesion. On the originals the glass inlay is laid onto copper plating that ha=
sn't been polished. That not only improves the grip but also contributes to t=
he colour. Chrome plating and polishing happens after the glass is flowed in=
 and levelled at PDE as it should be.
Best

Lister's,

I've mentioned this before but Karla Maxwell of "Maxwell Enamels" is a
friend and lives one town over in Vista. CA.

http://www.maxwellenamels.com/

She's not cheap but does outstanding work, and most of her business is for
Pebble Beach quality cars.  She repaired, re-nickel plated and re-enameled
the badge for my finned aluminum valve cover,... $400.00.  It was the
repair (micro welding of the gouges in the copper base plate that was
difficult and not cheap). She is a master jeweler by training.

Another good source for the early badge is Kirk's Auto Retfitters...
