The old style badges look fantastic

The only difference I would have done is mount them 2 or 3 inches higher in the true location that these badges were originally fitted on Series vehicles and early 90/110's. IMHO the larger badges look wrong mounted low

2008 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Stornoway Grey

I made a security plate to cover the rear wheel on the swing away carrier. I intend to replace the oval badge with the original brass one once I have received the 3mm stainless steel 190mm diameter round plate from the fabricators, fitted the mounting bolts and had it powdercoated black.

I think it would look quite right. Here is mine, and this one from Falon nameplates replaced exactly the same one as yours....

Really like those vintage style ones, the mrs does too so it looks like its one for the future. Michael was just telling me a story about a friend of his who slept with a land rover, lonely nights in the desert..
