Best Badge for MINI

Hello MINI friends.

I am looking at buying a badge holder and a badge to go with it but not sure which is the best badge holder option.

Right now I am between GoBadges and Craven Speed Badge starter kit.

GoBadges look sharper and have tons of badge options but the Craven Speed starter kit seems like a better value for the money.

Can you use GoBadges with the Craven Speed badge holder or vice versa?
Is there another badge holder option that I have not seen yet?

Thanks for the feedback amigos.

Go Badges is easy and it will pretty much fit all MINI grilles and options: They have tons of options. Other then that we have oem MINI holders.

THE best badges are those collected from any of the big MINI rallies held annually. For instance: MOTD, MTTS, MITM, MITO. Get out there and explore the countryside and badges will just come to you.

I have a couple Mini 50 grill badges in the garage. Can be used as a badge holder, with a sticker over the top.

We offer a very simple boot badge holder you can put two badges on

For the badges that is all personal preference as there is a badge for everything.

Thanks for the replies. I will check out the links everyone shared.

I definitely want to make it out to some of the events and pick up some unique badges, as soon as I can get some time off work.

I went with GoBadges. Got the Chili Red Owners Club badge and the ninja turtle emoji to start me off. Wish they had Rafael (Red ninja turtle) to match the red.

I've been wishing they had Donatello as my green MCS has been nicknamed Donatello since I set my ambient mood lighting to my favorite color of purple and added my U of Washington alumni frame and magnet (Washington's primary color is purple). Green with purple highlights, sounds like Donatello to me!

True. A Donatello one would look great with the green MCS. Wonder why they only made 2 of the 4 turtles...What do they have against Donatello and Raphael?

Maybe crazy Rafael and studious Donatello expressions didn't look good as badges. :D
