Title: Speedwell Bonnet Badge Post by: RIP356 on February 03, 2014, 10:09:05 am I remember a year or so ago on samba I saw a speedwell bonnet badge that replaced the crest at the bottom of the trim on the bonnet.
Were these produced and where would I find one?? Thanks Title: Re: Speedwell Bonnet Badge Post by: Fastbrit on February 03, 2014, 15:34:19 pm Not a genuine Speedwell item...

Title: Re: Speedwell Bonnet Badge Post by: RIP356 on February 03, 2014, 21:27:37 pm I wasnt sure if they were genuine or someone just had them made?
As a Brit living in Australia, I was thinking of getting one even though the BRMs I will be fitting will be Flat 4 copies. Just to fly the British connection a bit more? As I have just finished painting and am on the rebuild.
