I got some double sided plate adhesive, stuck my rear badge on with it, holds up really well.

Although would obviously not sit flush, about 2-3mm thickness.

i wasnt up for paying someone to band my g60s, so me and my mate did it

I kinda wish i had taken photos of them when they were cut in half, but my hands were too dirty to hold the camera

still need to grind the welds down though

also got this in the post;

its a mk1 top fill rad end, im going to take the end of an ibiza rad off and put this one on, making it a massive top fill. ;-)

They mostly do industrial sizes but could give CCH hoses in soham a try. Have used them for bits and pieces for tractors and stuff before and seems top quality stuff. They would probably be able to sort something for you.
