Hubcap centre emblem needed

[Steve Phillips]

Hi everyone

I wonder if any of you can help,
I have a customers Bristol in and one of the jobs is re chroming. I have good hubcaps that can be chromed but I'm missing a centre emblem, as in the attached picture.
I wondered if anyone had one I could buy?
Or
Knew of anywhere where I could get one?
Or
Know if they were used on any other make of car?
Many thanks
Steve

Hi Steve,

I have only seen this emblem on 407’s like mine.
I suggest you contact Graeme at Bristol Parts as quite a few must have been made and nor many 407’s are running in the UK.
I suspect if they are not on a 407 then they have been replaced and a set of 4 for a 405/6 would hit.Best of luck.

Thanks
Yes it's a 407.
So they are the correct centres. I suppose that's the trouble with being a fairly rare car.

I can't help with a source other than, as said, try Graeme but, FYI, my 408 has those on it.

A decent replacement could be made quite quickly in resin with 50% aluminium powder. I have done this for the later V8 hub cap badges to surprisingly good effect. A silicone mould will make dozens without loss of definition.
If you are interested I can jot down a step by step guide.
