I just got my MC on December 17 (my birthday!!) and have been admiring everyone's modification pics, thinking how I want to do mine up. I noticed one pic of the side repeater vents that had two little flags, (checkered and UK) attached to the right side of the vents. I've looked around the sponsors' websites and can't find anything like it and (of course) I can't find my way back to the original pic. I want to find a vent that has the USA flag on it. Anyone ever see this and know where I can find it?

You won't find them anywhere as theyre a custom job by myself, although I beleive a few have copied (but never shown pictures of their attempts.

As for the flags, they're MG car badges, so don't know where you could get a US equivalent sorry.

Sorry about naff pic.

Thanks for the info. I think I'll still hunt around for a US flag. How did you attach the badges to the vents? Glue, wire, or the fix-it-all "duct tape"?

DUCT TAPE!

Used a 2 part glue (alrodite). Cut/Filed out a section in the shape of the badge and then glued it.
