How much has it cost Morgan just to replace faulty badges- I expect all the dealers claim back warranty labour to take off and refit these things?It shows a lack of care- but also a total lack of commercial awareness- the bit that actually tells people what you are driving- is falling apart.

Still - nothing beats the thrill of driving one of these flawed diamonds!!!

Mine (4/4 not Aero) has lost paint out of some letters also - but I wouldn't dream of wasting my dealer's time with something so trivial. Do people really get that bothered about it? crazy3

As Dave say, they just bolt on. I was lucky enough to obtain a badge from Williams which was curved and it fitted straight on. I do have to admit to not fitting neoprene under it!

P.S. I replaced the badge, not because of peeling paint but because I preferred the old style!
