Beware of the cheap badges. I bought a set of Z1 emblems and the paint lasted a few weeks. I had to repaint them with model paint and a very tiny brush. My tank badges did the same thing but worse. :evil: They were bought from different places too. I would have been better off getting them from Ma Kaw

I was pleasnantly surprised at the construction of the OE side panel emblems. One of my panels fell off a while back due to bad grommets and the emblem got some deep scratches where it says "Double Overhead Camshaft". Well, I thought it was chrome plated. Nope. It's just polished aluminum (or whatever that soft metal is). I was able to get 90% of the scratches out with some fine sandpaper and a buffing.
