Guy, with regards to the badges, have you thought of maybe having them enamelled, by a badge company maybe? 
Thanks buddy, the issue with enamelling is (as I understand it) it involves heat to "flow" the enamel. These are 3D printed in a plastic that starts to melt at 60 Degree's, the biggest issue has been the chrome paint that "doesn't play well with others". However having spoken to the manufacturer it appears that "full cure" takes 1 to 2 weeks (not the 24hrs it says on the can) I have found that leaving it for a week on the window sill above a radiator has made it much more forgiving to work with. It would have been much easier to do if they were "plastic chromed" but the price I was quoted was ridiculous, still I think we are getting there now :)

Those are looking loads better!
