Surely in that case then, any badging on the back is chavvy That means that my Cooper badge is chavvy? Of course, on ebay it goes now

Each to thier own, but I think rec was referring to any non-standard, car accessory type shop lettering. So any OEM badging is ok.

When I was doing mine I was extremely careful to make sure the letters were positioned accurately, to make sure it didn't look like a 'chavvy' slap on job.

At the end of the day, its all about personalisation, I love mine and I think Matts looks good

Hi there Matt

If you need the trim get intouch with MINI2 member "chris at woodman bmw", and see what deal he could do you.

I'm not mad that you beat me to the grille, I suppose I should have added a ' ' to the end of the post and as ALD0 said, all Mini People should be nice to each other.
