4200 bonnet badge

[alpinatom]

hi all,

Picked my car up yesterday - get home and notice no bonnet badge! I seem to remember something flying up in the road so it must have been this!!! Cannot believe it!

Have found one on euro spares, does anyone have a spare before I order?

thanks

Tom

Just get one from a main dealer . They ll be cheaper and quicker .I think i paid £12 for mine a couple of months ago. Make sure you get the correct one . The pre and post facelifts are differant sizes i seem to remember .

only £12 from main dealer ok great thanks

Eurospares are nt cheap at all . or fast. you are always better phoning the main dealer first . Ebay and other sites inflate prices because its Maserati .
Iv bought almost all of my spares from Meridien Modena in Lyndhurts and have been suprised at the prices .


I had a split glove box tray and searched every where online for one . People where quoting me £200 for a second hand one . Phoned Meridien, £27 new from the factory . arrived in 4 days !

yep dealers are best, i had some new unfitted parts left over from my maserati 3200 i got from the dealer, i put them on eBay, they sold for more than i paid! aha

Local HR Owen just quoted £156

did they quote the trident instead ? can't imagine the little bonnet badge costing that much

Sounds like a trident price

They are not easy to remove, the grille is a bit of a bind to get off and can easily damage the paint if not careful
I don't think the quality is very good either as had mine replaced about 4 years ago and it's already showing signs of oxidisation. The chrome grille has water marks on it that won't come off - that was new as well
