Nice Pics .... Black badges sorted on order.. Iain

There OK, but I am not sure if I'll keep them on as I am not totally sure about stickers over the real badges.

Time will tell I suppose. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

They look ok, but I like my green and silver badges. They look better than the green and gold ones IMHO.

Any chance of a fitted photo, close up, showing the edges in focus, they look like they don't fully cover the whole badge  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

just checked the wifes freelande r2 badge and the rear badge is bubbling and peeling from the backing plate ,i wonder if i can remove the original and fit the new in the plastic instead?

cheers RJW they fit quite well by the looks of it Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Ok Guys,
Just joined the "Black/Chrome" Badge Club.
Looking forward to receiving them (should look a good contrast with Zermatt Silver)

Thanks rjw976 for posting the link to "DMB Graphics"
Looks like they have sold a few of these since you started this thread.

Cheers JC

Just wondered, if they were black and chrome as standard would people be fitting green and gold overlays "as they look better" ??

Of course they/we would
If the pre MY11 front bumper and the post MY11 was the other way around it would be deemed a better looking upgrade, just because it's different and also because it's newer.
Now't as strange as folk and we love tinkering, have to admit I wouldn't bother with the badge colour change though.

Silly boy - you're supposed to skin the sheep before you cook it!

managed to peel off the old badge on the boot and front grill ,so hopefully when my new black ones arrive the will sit nicely in the original badge recess.

Peter2704,
I would be really interested to see how you get on with the new badges,
Am still waiting for mine to be delivered and might try removing mine from the badge recess also
as they have all gone crinkley & rough, perhaps through age or water, was thinking i might get a better finish
doing it this way, rather than just applying over a couple of rough badges.

So yeah please post if you have success with this method...

Cheers JC....
