| 515 How 
curved is the tailgate V8 badge?
 The V8 badge fitted to the tailgate of 
both chrome and rubber bumpered MGBGTV8s is curved along the length of the badge 
- see overhead view alongside comparing the flat V8 badge fitted to the nearside 
wing to the slightly curved badge. The badge is also very slightly curved from 
the top to bottom edge of the badge (not shown in the photos alongside). This 
complex curving is necessary to fit the badge to the bottom lefthand side of the 
tailgate. More photos
