    Top Flight Bumper Medallion - New Style vs Old

    I have a brand new TF medallion and was wondering if anyone attached it to a C3 since it has a fixed mounting bracket? I would love to get the older style is someone has one to sell or trade.

    Jack,
    Below is a photo of the Top Flight medallion attached to my '69. The front license bracket has to be attached to do this.

      To mount my Top Flight medallion, I trimmed the mounting tab off, then drilled two holes. I used stainless screws, black fender washers, stainless lock washers and stainless hex nuts. See attached. Hope this helps.

        Thanks guys. In Jersey we have a front plate requirement and I gave it some thought on placing it on the grille. To me, it just looks a little out of place. I should have kept the older style but I let it go with my 68 when I sold it.

                  Still looking for the old style with a new one to trade. It looks like the new medallion, the one not released, will obscure the plate if mounted on the top or bottom.
