Yes a new JCW badge can be purchaced at the dealer, and it is a simple peel and stick affair as timfitz63 said. However it is quite pricey the last time I looked it was $94.00 per badge!!
a little rediculas if you ask me. I wanted one for on my dash until I saw the price.
That is one nice looking Clubby, and buying used is my prefered method of buying a car so dont feel bad because you payed less. I bought both of my MINI's pre-owned(with minor problems) and they depritiated nicely in somone elses garage leaving them to flip all that negitive equity.

hi everybody, sorry been away for a while. I did check the VIN and its a genuine JCW whew...
$94!!! i agree with flatlander.
I sometimes take the train to work and one day there was another clubman parked. I parked next to it and took a picture. Would it be OK to post it here or would the owner be mad?

How's that for a wishy-washy answer...?

You're more than welcome!
Cool! A couple of Clubman Bookends! 
I know what you're saying; I don't seem to encounter them much in my "neck of the woods" either; lots more Hardtops than Clubmans. But one of the few Clubmans I have encountered was a factory JCW as well...!

Well, this morning was quite a surprise. driving to work there were 3 clubmans . (3 CLUBMANs or should i say 3 Clubmen), including mine, on three different lanes. AWESOME. one was the base, then a cooper s and then my jcw. UNBELIEVABLE. wish somebody was there to take the picture.
I am not sure if i missed a forum or its not mentioned here. Did you guys hear about the mini vs 911 on June 21? Check out the attachments.

It would not seem to be a "fair fight" on the surface (particularly using a Cooper S rather than a JCW Hardtop) -- but that's probably the point entirely: another of MINI's quirky marketing ploys, for which they are well-known. I've got to think MINI is going to play to it's strong suit and make this a heavy turning duel (i.e., few, if any, straight-line sprints) if it has any hope of winning the challenge. And even if the Cooper S loses, but if it sells a few MINI's to those who recognize that the MINI held its own against a Porsche, then probably "mission accomplished" as far as MINI is concerned...

I ran across the MINI VS Porsche thing in another thread, it is being held at VIR if Porsche shows up.
Not being much of a fan of the newer rear engined compensation for not having fun when you where younger cars, I hope MINI has thought this one out and brought something other than a stock Cooper S.
May the best car win (front wheel drive and all)
