I'm looking at getting custom TMF bonnet badges made up, but with most things like this it would require a bulk buy, so I need to make sure there is enough interest. Estimated cost would be between £10-15.

Here is something I mocked up in 3D Studio Max, not a great shot (the image was originally intended for something else) but you get the idea...

I'd like a big one for the bonnet, one for the boot... and how about some smaller ones for the wings??

Sorry, original post updated with expected cost. I'd like to look into doing different badges, but we'll have to see how popular these are.

Yea, Nick is still sorting out the stickers! :P I understand that a lot of people like to keep the standard badges, so I'm not expecting a flood of people, but if I can get maybe 20-30 people who say they'd definitely be interested then I'll look into it further.

Would it not be easier to create a stick on image in the shape of the old badge centre? then people can just swap it over and put it back to standard if required.

A stand alone badge (as in not a wings or Mini badge) would have to be a lot bigger than that Jammy, to cover the badge mounting holes in the bonnet curve. to be honest the shape of the TMF logo doesn't lend itself to covering up the holes without being massive though, and selling a badge that means people will need to fill and paint the bonnet is going to really limit sales. I like the idea of a centre for a wings badge but the logo would be quite small to fit it into a circle like that. See how big the oval would have to be to cover up the holes, but I am interested in some.
