Just a note. I had this badge for about 7 years. I had kept my receipt and site photos of badge as well as a copy of the dealers policy which guaranteed everything on his site 100% original forever. I contacted the dealer with a request to return the badge for a refund. He agreed and about a week later I received a check for the amount I paid for the badge. This man honored his word.

You should name the dealer here. This is something one won´t see everyday!

Dealers such as that are far and few between. He does deserve to be mentioned. Kudos to him.
