Yes this is. You can buy replica badges but not the correct centre reflector so you have to remove yours carefully which looks very good, polish it and then superglue in place.

It wasn't mine until now.. Just bought it off ebay as it comes with the reflector and looks a tad better than mine. Thanks.

Quite like the look of the old reflector badge.. though have a break light fitting left from my late father in law. Sticking with the reflector I think.
