Default Rear valiance badging for F Type R AWD

Greetings: I'm new to the forum. I just purchased an 2017 F Type R , and recently noticed there is no badging on the rear area valiance. Specifically, F Type(Driver side rear) and R/AWD (Passenger side rear). Is there a recommended supplier other than the dealer I can purchase from. I assume this is an easy application. Thanks in advance.

BritCar, Suburban Auto, or eBay if you do not want to use the dealer.

Before putting on the F-Type badging, drive without it for a little. In my opinion, the F-Type logo is a bit out of place and was not in Ian's original design. It was added my marketing, no doubt. Without the badging, there is an extra air of mystery.

The R badging is a bit more subjective. People who know, know. All F-Type owners can tell if your F-Type is an R instantly (a few exception apply, like Unhindged's S with the quad exhaust). I can see wanting to brag about it being an R. Either way, your car, your choice. Application is fairly easy as the badges come on a template, for lack of a better term, already spaced out correctly. You also now have the option of getting the badges in black.

My V6S with 6MT came badged as an R/AWD on the rear only. I replaced those with the S, but removed all the lettering otherwise. I still have the R/AWD emblems somewhere. PM me if you want them. Assuming I can find them, they're yours for the asking.

EDIT: @JagF I see that you only have one post. You need more (5?) before you can PM. If you're interested, you can say so here.
