Hi Guys!

Just bought a Land Rover 88 - series 3 in original condition from an old farmer. Drives well, but I would love to do Some minor changes to the body untill I have more time to start a full restauration.

As said it’s a original condition landy. Body and chassis Are solid, except Some dends it’s in good condition to be original! The farmer did not like the black and white land-rover logo/badge on the grill so hè had the brilliant idea to resprayed the logo on the grill in black...

Long story short - it looks bad on the car so I would like to replace it. I’ve been searching for days now but I just can’t find it... any idea where to find it?

Thanks guys!

The logo is integral to the grill on the 88 - part number is 346346 - so you’ll need to replace it all. Example: https://www.johnrichardssurplus.co.uk/land-rover-series-3-genuine-plastic-front-grill-346346.html
Alternatively the v8 had a separate logo which you might be able to get hold of and fit somehow. Part no mrc3598

Why not just respray in silver then highlight the letters in black again?

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought. Better replace the whole grill than it seems to me it’s not that expensive and quiet an important part to me

thanks for the numbers and advice!

Thanks for the idea! Was my initial idea as well but I noticed all parts are quiet affordable so was thinking just to change it as an easy fix instead of trying to get it smooth with paint

Someone will want your black one for sure.

Probably! Will keep it for now until I can find a solution

For those interested or with the same issue: I just found out Rovers North is selling an original logo replacement to fit on the aftermarket grill!
