Abarth badges

I have posted in here because it is for my cinq, although i guess all owners on this site can use it.....

Is http://abarthbadges.co.uk any good?

I have wanted to get one of the new style circle badges for my cinq, but i haven't had the time.

Can this item ->

http://abarthbadges.com/store/produc...cat=261&page=1

Be stuck straight onto the bonnet ( after removing the square badge) ?
OR is it only possible to stick this straight on top of the new look badge (with the feather-type things around the edges) ?

Also what are people opinions of these->

http://abarthbadges.com/store/produc...cat=258&page=1

thanks,

Joe

I don't know about that particular badge, but I've order other badges and the quality is good.

Re: Abarth badges

Abarth Badges are very good, Greg who runs it has a very clean integrale which I think is shown on the site. He's a really nice guy to deal with and is always very prompt with any queries you have (no I'm not on commission )

The first badge you show, I have actually used as centre caps on the AZEV's on my integrale, they are good quality & have stood up well to brake dust, alloy wheel cleaner etc so no need to worry about it on a bonnet. The 2nd badges you show I have on both my cars, above the side repeaters on the Cinq & on the brackets of the spoiler on the integrale.

Re: Abarth badges

If you ordered the Abarth wing badges they are 2.8cm high. I thought they were quite good... They don't fade and once they are on they don't come off. They even withstand a power hose!

Thats the size i thought they were supposed to be aswell, 1.5cm doesn't semm right. The abilty to withstand a power hose does not matter to my cinq as he isn't getting washed for a while.....

Re: Abarth badges

Hi Joe

Greg here from AbarthBadges. The circular badge will certainly stick on the bonnet directly after removing the original or Directly over the top of an existing fiat badge that you can pick up for £5 or so at any fiat dealership. The badges come in 60mm in Black, 70mm in Black or Blue and I have One RED. All with metal effect scorpion and surround.

Sounds like Sam who ordered or received the wing badges, not the bigger skirt / boot badges prefers to slag me off rather than contact me and ask a question???

Anyway hope this helps.

Hi Greg,

Well you would say that about on of your badges, lol.

Yes I did paint the callipers, & they did turn out well, it was just a little bit of a ball ache making sure that I never covered the "LANCIA" writing on the calliper as I think thats what makes them. They are the standard Brembo 4 pots which come on the EVO & I'm sure they come black as standard cos there was only a few at L2B last year with red & I'm sure they were all painted too.

Aaron.
