I have two, one with a small chipping. This one I would sell to a member, the other one came with my car and will be kept.
   I will take a pic and post it here.

Both badges side by side. The right one will stay with my car, the left one is for sale. But before her some remarks about the quality: It has a small chipping in the blue enamel near the top end of the A. An other small shipping can be seen in the middle of the A's bar, i applied some shadow to make it visible.
   In general the badge ( in my opinion, looking for surface failures all day no one can see) looks like a rejected production part, the enamel surface of all colors is not as shiny as it is on the right badge and the colors are a bit more intense.
   The left one is also a bit curved or bended and not as flat as the right one.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   From the distance ( more then 1 meter) it looks not too bad.

   I have a 1964 Owners Club badge which I bought for my 4.2 litre Cobra. I was never used for fear of theft and is therefore in mint condition. Have tried to attach photo but without success! Proposed price £55.
   
   Regards

I have purchased from EBay, an Owner's Club badge like the ones shown and looking for a way to install it on my Mk IV.  Below is a photo of a car that belonged to a Club member who sold it a few months ago.  His ACOC badge is attached via a badge clip and I would like to find one like this to attach mine similarly to the front bumper.  I have tried numerous sources and purchased a clip from a U.S. company (a 1" clip) but it was too small.  I checked with Moss and a looked on-line for other resources but to no avail. Does anyone know of a resource for a large enough clip to attach my badge similarly to the car shown below or is this a custom item that I will need to have fabricated?  Thank you!

DIY from stainless flat material if the 1" is too small.

   I was hoping that there was a ready-made clip for sale out there somewhere in the world such that I don't have to make one.  This can be done as you suggest, unfortunately, I don't have the correct tools to shape one.   Any Mk IV owners find a way to attach their ACOC badge to the front hoop bumper without making a clip themselves from stainless steel?  If not, I will have to get one fabricated it seems.  Thanks.

What about looking at a couple of P clips ? At least with the rubber section you won't mark the bar and the badge won't "fall over".

   Hi John.  Thanks for that link.  That seems to be a good possibility.  I will look into this further to see if this might work out.  Thanks again!
