Artmin Design - recommendation
Just wanted to provide my recommendation of a supplier that 'Steve R' used once and posted about here http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic19252.html

Just bought this badge from him

Click image to enlarge


But he produces a number of other similar style ones and as far as I can tell will pretty much make whatever you want! He (Gavin) was a pleasure to deal with, genuinely suggesting the best solution for me and not just trying to grab my money

Badge hasn't arrived yet so can't comment on quality but others highly recommend him and from the pictures, it all looks very good indeed!

If you're interested look here at his previous work and items for sale: http://www.artmindesign.co.uk

You can also contact him and he will (I'm sure) do his best to come to a solution for your idea... Cheers, David

Couldn't agree more! A very helpful bloke and a really top quality product.

Gavin has provided custom badges for both my 110 and my V8 Lightweight (and I have a few ideas for future orders too!).

Highly recommended! Thumbs Up

I'm just having a badge made by him - very enthusiastic and helpful - even though I've asked him to do something he's never done. Now left.

I've just ordered a couple more badges from Gavin - this time some scaled-down old-style Land-Rover badges in approximately the same size as the current front grille badge.

One is for the front grille and one for the dash centre console (the bare-looking bit low down).

Pics to follow in January once they're made and fitted. Thumbs Up

Yeah sure cost me £45, with a couple of other bits so maybe a little bit more on it's own but not a lot I'd guess. That was posted too Cheers, David

Well here's a pic of my latest order from Gavin which should be with me shortly - exact mini-size replicas of the old-style badge. One is destined to decorate my new mesh Stage 1 V8 grille in the bottom right corner:

Looks like a top quality finish as usual. Thumbs Up Can't wait to get it fitted...
