I think they both look good in the centre, but on the bonnet it looks too much with the mini badge as well. I would ditch the mini bonnet badge and just have the speedwell on the bonnet, where the mini badge is at the minute so a bit higher up than in the picture. A bit like a mk1 Austin cooper bonnet badge. That would look ace!

Looks odd off to one side due to the shape of it. Centre rear, or centre bonnet as only badge. Does the car have a speedwell conversion on it?

I would lose the RAC badge (and maybe the AA). I think in the middle will look best although it looks a tad odd with the mini badge, try putting the speedwell one above the mini one rather than below.

I'd say speedwell only on the back. On the front it has the wrong curvature for a mini front end, and with all the badges it looks cluttered imo, but then I like clean lines.
