The Mclaren F1 Is my Favorite Super Car And I was wondering
If any know knows if it is possible to Acquire Ether The
A real OEM Front Nose Emblem or Rear Grill Emblem.

The Font one is the rectangular "McLaren" Logo.

If it is possible Let me know how much they would run and
How I can get one?

:wave: I think eBay is the way to go - even then they are super-rare; I haven't seen them anywhere else.....

No they had never been fitted to a car. Still looking for a front badge to complete the set.

I am sure they still have some spares in case of an accident. Whether or not they can let you buy one without being an owner is another matter.....

I tend to agree with Hurstg unless you can prove your'e an owner and in need of one then it's unlikely they will sell you anything, I know from personal experience.

Ok Every One, So who was the OEM for the Front Nose And Rear Badge Emblems?

I would like to know if there is any way to acquire An Authentic "Mclaren"
Emblem Badge that was manufactured As the External Fixture for the car.

I actually heard that some one on this message board was able to acquire such A find.

Wow, a 5 year old thread resurrection! :). Perhaps you could have asked this in your original thread? ;)
This made sense in the other post ;)

To the best of my knowledge this was the company who did the original badges for the F1, whether they were latter put out to tender I can not comment on.

Thomas Fattoirini Ltd.
Birmingham.
Great Britain.

It did not reach the reserve. Bids topped out unbelievably at under £300. :screwy:

I later managed to contact the seller and bought it privately. Check out more pics in my recent thread here (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=953878).
