Badges...

Morning.
03 Coupe here...
Some A$$ at my wife's work loves to peel the "mini" stickers off the emblems... Hood, trunk...
Can I get new stickers (the black portion i guess) or do i need to replace the badges all together? And are there any cost effective options for this one?

Thanks guys!

Asthetic Creations used to have a replacement sticker but the link to that page appears dead. Try again later?

Nobody stole your badges, this is very common for the black to just wear off.

We keep these in stock cause this is a common problem.

details details

on my 02 the badges were a disk of stamped and painted (black) metal, with a plastic disk over the top. After a few years the seal around the plastic had deteriorated (glue?) and moisture got in to the painted disk..Sun/heat and that water made the black fade away and eventually corrosion even formed making a white oxidation residue. Eventually the plastic and metal center just fell out....

What kind of loser would peel the sticker off a car badge? Yeesh!

Here's an ebay option: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-Cooper-emblem-front-back-badge-decal-vinyl-sticker-logo-hood-trunk-hb-hatch-/180975701187?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a22fe0cc3
The seller had a domed version too but I don't see them listed right now.

Sorry to here about your rear badge. Sometime the center peals up a bit around the edges and then comes off, like BMW roundels.

MINI does not have the sticker separately. You can take the old one off with some heat the floss technique. We have it here in stock:

Thanks
