Thanks hlgeorge. I'm keeping my eyes peeled.

I may buy the green and black badge and have the outer edge vinyled with the checkered white 'jaguar supercharged' lettering then the whole thing clearcoated if worse comes to worse.

P.s. Can you look at your ebay account and get the name of the seller you bought it from? If it's a big ebay seller maybe I can contact him. THANX!

It was some guy selling out of his home and it was over a year ago, so I don't have that info anymore. Sorry.
I didn't realize it was so rare!!

Try Auto Parts - Parts.com, For Every Part of Your Life
They show it as available if I have the right part number.

Chris, every find your badge? Is this it? Ebay ad...in the UK. And they have 10 to sell!!!!



Its the insert only, but you can put it in any chrome ring from another badge. If they won't ship to the US direct, you may want to ask Frog, he is in France and I think he's going to be buying one for his car. You can see if he will buy 2, then ship you one and you can reimburse. Worth a shot, no idea how long these will be available.

My guess is these badges are all sourced to one or two suppliers. Find them, and you have a much better chance to either find a shelf item badge, or get them to make a couple for you.

While this might seem difficult, it should be an easy task for Jaguar to examine their procurement records and provide you with contact info of source. Much easier than digging around junk yards for same.
