Todds Mods

After comparing the original and MINI Swag “GP” letters on GPMINIs hood scoop recently, Todd (of ToddsMods, MotoringBadges and WhiteRoofRadio) said he could make closer-to-original badges … so I ordered some and fitted them today - it took ages to peel off the MINI Swag letters (maybe it would have been easier if it wasn’t 20f!)

Here’s an animated photo of the MINI Swag letters, then Todds letters - sorry I haven’t taken a comparion pic of Todds letters to the originals, but Todd did and there’s negligible difference (sorry, I deleted the pic he took!):

Todd makes loads of other fabulous stuff too including a great MTTS magnetic badge that lives on my fridge - well now, it has company! Look at these amazing badges, a must for any enthusiastic GP owner ;)

And also this one - I’m not sure if this is still secret or not (but I guess it isn’t now!):

Each magnetic badge is just less than 3″ diameter, as are these self-stick decals that Todd also sent me!

I can’t find these designs on Todds websites but email him and I’m sure he’ll be happy to sell them to you :)

    Ian - glad you liked the free prototype samples. The JCW logo badge is not for sale but I’ll be posting some of the other GP badge and decal designs on the site soon. Also, look for a NAM announcement/launch this week.

    So I have something almost unique - thank you :)

    Great stuff, Todd! I don’t want to damage the paint, so will probablynot get any badges until I figure out what to do with them.

    Well, as I said, I didn’t have the original letters. Just did the best I could at the time.

    Jeff,
    No criticism - Todd had a distinct advantage!
    Chatting with George’s wife Jayne last night, she’s THRILLED with her red GP letters on GP1717 :)
