Black MG badge replacement (Rear)

[nickb93]

Hi all, I bought some black MG badges that you stick on over chrome ones. The front one was very simple however I foolishly didn't check the back one before ordering and it's actually not accessible at all due to the plastic cover like the image attached.

Has anyone been able to get to this badge or find an alternative or shall I just stop wasting my time

Thanks!

I think the rear one is just a gel type badge that you stick on the outside of the clear plastic.

I thought the back ones are for SE models, they have a different backside with an exposed badge (unlike the Trophy that is encased in the plastic light bar)

Yep, this seems to be the case. Unfortunately I didn't check when ordering. Might have to settle for just a black front badge unless anyone has found an alternative option!

Nope, no alternative.

Anyone need a black back badge?

Just seen someone on Facebook who has done the back but placed it on top of the plastic housing on the outside. Said he used thicker double sided tape to do it. How well it holds up, I don't know. I'll give it a go today.

It looks OK square on. Use a bit of bluetak to try it out and see if you like it. The adhesive from the double sided tape might damage the surface of the plastic

Update: it looks naff

Are you on about the side logo rather than the main MG logo on the back? Looks smart but hoping for a solutions for the central back MG logo
