jagman Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 If someone wants gold badges etc it is possible to gold leaf them , 24karat gold leaf kits are around £12 , you get a brush , size, and leaf pad with about a dozen sheets - a steady hand and cotton buds , if you are ham fisted ,just don't ...

SupraTRD_MK4 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 nice to know blythmrk. Was there any special reason toyota made them gold? I know their AE86 models has a gold edition car but don't know why would they have chosen this? Is it a specialty from the rest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 So, took a look and I have got one, it appears to be the front bumper Toyota logo. A little bit worse for wear from stone chips. Is this sellable as I don't want or need it ? It's that or it'll end up on my tool chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evinX Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I think your bootlid has the optional supra emblem to. Looks much larger with the surround on it. Some thin wire will get it off in 1 peice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra gold badges get listed for strong money in the USA as they rarely come up for sale and were a common fitment on several base colour cars in the 1996/7 years and also jspec cars of that era. Your badge is quite badly chipped so isn't likely to be valued that highly, but it'll probably end up more chipped sitting in your tool chest so you might as well see if it shifts. If you are prepared to post overseas you could eBay it on auction and see where it goes, probably £20 would be a good price to achieve in this condition. I think the good quality badges will only become more valued as time goes by as people will naturally prefer NOS (I myself have paid £100 for a NOS gold logo badge) or as good as new if they wish to retain originality as when it comes time to repaint their car, owners would rather add new badges rather than return their old faded and battered badges onto new paint. If you do an eBay listing include the width and height as that differentiates the logo badge on a Supra from lesser Toyota's logo badges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
