I took off my badge bar and badges when I had full bumpers fitted. Somehow the bar I had seemed to sit too high. I never got round to fitting it and then when in desperation I told my house clearance guys to just clear all the junk in the garage.....they went 😳.
So now badgeless and I’m beginning to like the clean look.....thankfully!

Alternatively, mount the bar the other way up. This will hide (from the front) most of the badge mounting bracket and also give less reduction in cooling air to the rad. I tried that Graham but found that it hid not only the brackets but also the bottom half of the badges. Do I need to extend the brackets for this method or have I just got a higher than standard front bumper? ~iw

Either a higher bumper or a lower badge bar Ian. I couldn't tell without actually seeing the result

I am contemplating adding a badge bar to my 1966 Plus Four but am wondering about any adverse effects on engine cooling and welcome any thoughts on this. Thanks.

Ref,
I had 4 badges on my previous Roadster with no cooling problems, even in France with air temps in the 30's (deg C that is)

Fit the bar "upside down" i.e. low, this will reduce any potential problems. You may have to fit badges first though.
