Fiat trunk and hood emblems gold wreath

Post by NJFIAT1981 »

Can anyone tell me where I can find trunk and hood emblems that have a gold wreath instead of the silver or bronze wreath. Had them on my 1980 but they were destroyed in a crash. Can't seem to find them. Thanks for your help

Just spoke with AutoRicambi. They don't have those. Can't seem to find any. Appears that they were a special run and that no others were made.
If anyone has a set laying around I would like to have them.

Thanks, George

They don't have them. HD Rogers took the order and then had to get a refund from them

The Bronze ones might polish up to a "goldish" color...

Hi George,
IMHO the gold ones that I had on my blue 1980 just looked better than the silver or bronze ones. Apparently it was a one time run that somebody made.

they are not gold plated but have a bronze look, so they arent bright. I got a set from Ramzi and Csaba, so must have grabbed the last ones available. eat your hearts out :mrgreen: they look awesome on a black background. I would not attempt to brighten them up as you will go thru the finish and end up with silver ones.

My 1980 came with the gold-look badges.
They are shiny gold -- not bronze.
