Default BA Fairmont Badges on AU (Pics)

Ok, so yesterday I got bored so I decided to shop around for some Fairmont badges to just finish off my car nicely because I found that the rear S1 Fairmont badge just kept the back looking out dated and abit bland.

So I called motor traders and bought the last of the BA MkI and MkII Fairmont badges that they had in stock. Worked out nicely as they only had 3 left which was what I was after. So I drove over to Grand Junction Road and picked them up (not a cheap exercise, $120.10 for the 3 badges).

We got the car home and worked on peeling the S1 Fairmont badge off, Hair Dryer and Fishing wire works perfectly to get the badge off of the original glue. Then we used petrol on the glue on the paint and wipped it off.

The rear Fairmont badge barely fits onto the boot and you have to be perfectly exact on your messurments to ensure that it fits.

All up it took us about a 55 minute job to complete.

I also did something alittle different and put the Fairmont badge's on the rear doors like the Calias have. I'm not sure if this has been done before, If so I'd like too see pics too.

I have some pics so please tell me what you think.

Regards, Nathan.
