Union Jacks

[Harey]

Hi,

When were the Union Jacks added to the front wings? If I would like to add some, are they a Lotus OEM 'part' or has anyone tried anything aftermarket with success?

Cheers

Chris

Enamel badge was fitted to the SR, part no A132U0995S

Decal was fitted to the GP edition, part no A132U0985S

Thanks, perfect

Actually, does anyone know of a UK online seller; do avoid a dealer visit?

You can order any Lotus part via thelotusforums shop: https://www.thelotusforums.com/shop/

And, if you're an FFM, you get a 10% discount.

Thanks. Struggling to find them (maybe just using the mobile version of the website); anybody got a direct link?

Also, slighly off topic - if I go for £100 membership to get the conformity certificate, does it move to £25/year one there after?

Cheers

Chris

If you let me know which ones you're after Chris, I'll add them to the shop for you. 

If you upgrade to Gold, it is annual but you can just pick a normal membership come renewal time

Thanks Bibs. Having looked on the B&C site, they are saying the part number has changed to B132U0995S.

With VAT they seems a bit expensive on their site for two small badges

Welcome to the world of Lotus parts pricing.

If you haven't worked it out already, you might be able to source similar/identical enamel badges elsewhere.

I got some for my last Evora from I think EliseParts.

I went for black/grey for the stealth look and they still looked fine after couple of years.

Thanks. I wasn't sure they were the right size when I found originally. 

Does anybody know the genuine dimensions?

Good news! They're only £40 from Lotus. I had to buy replacements for mine as the road rash disintegrated the colour on the leading edges.

These are the ones I had fitted (car didn't come with them on):

I have a set that I need to fit.
