Yep I was in touch with him, he said he'd had a few delaminate. To his credit he sent a replacement set (after a fair bit of procrastinating, which wore a bit thin given I was driving a car round with no badges on). Unfortunately I found the replacement sat on the driveway a few days later and just gave up on the thing. I was working away and mad busy so just couldn't afford the time to chase it up again. I regret that now on principle...

You guys are on drugs paying £100 for replica badges The front and rear badges will also not be genuine as de1979 has correctly said as they are the ugly oversized versions. The Supercharged RR & RRS initially had the black LR Badges to identity that it was the 4.2 Jaguar Supercharged unit which is when JLR first made the changes in 2006. These vehicles had the normal size oval badge MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

They look just the same as the other guys TBH. You'd need a backplate to go with those. On the wing badges the metal badge itself isn't the issue, it's the fact that it doesn't adhere to the backplate properly due to it's curved design, so ultimately lifts. |

The front & rear badges I got from him had LR part numbers on the back of them, so they looked like genuine ones to me... I also noted the quality of the construction and the detail of the logo on the front/rear ones was better than the c-pillar ones, which is why I thought the front/rear were genuine...

99% sure mine didn't have part numbers on. Will check at the weekend. Maybe that's the difference... maybe he's switched to cheaper F&R ones somewhere inbetween you buying and me.

Don't have the p/n's on hand, if I did take photo's it would have been with my old phone, and I can't seem to find any pictures of the badges in the backup folder...

I put the gel overlay badges on mine too, straight on top of the original green ones. If you look really really closely you can see just a sliver of green on the front badge edge, but under normal circumstances you cant see a difference at all.
