Question Crunchyman

Hi everyone, new to the site here and wondering if anyone knows much about emblems/lettering for the Countryman. My 3 year old daughter cannot pronounce Countryman and has been calling my car "Crunchy Man" which I think is absolutely hilarious. I am seriously considering altering the lettering on the boot to read "CRUNCHYMAN" and figured that I can swap a few letters around but I am still going to be missing an "H"
Does anyone have a recommendation for where I could track down an H emblem that is around the same size and font as the COUNTRYMAN lettering on the car currently? Buying from Ebay is tricky because you can't really tell if it's going to work out.
Thanks for your time!

Welcome to the forum

I could be wrong, but don't the emblems have pins behind them on the Mini ?

I don't think they do. The 2011 to 2013 models don't have the lettering at all and it was added in 2014. I did take off the cooler letters and there were no pins or holes

No help with your project, but ain't it fun to have a whole new vocabulary provided by our children? We still use it after 40 years.

Did your 3 year old say something that caused you to go with Phlegm as a user name?
