I have three trim pieces that I'd love to see re-popped for
Medina, my '71 Monaco.
1: the badge that the dealer screwed into her trunk lid. The pot metal is not in great shape and may well disintegrate by the time when I have the car repainted (likely in Spring 2021) or at the time of the paint job. It's part of the car's history, so I'd like to save it if possible. FWIW, member
@hergfest owns a '64 Polara 500 'vert
sporting the same badge.

2: the fender crest and wreath that missing on each side of Medina's rear fenders. They are seen below in a photo of a similar '71 Monaco owned by
@saforwardlook. Thanks to
@Bill Watson, I have learned that the part number for the medallion is 3568596 (neither of us could find anything about the laurel wreath). In my experience, originals are very hard to find. Luckily, over Christmas, I got original spares thanks to
@71Polara383 -- but he tells me that they are fragile glued-on pieces (and prone to breaking in the removal/installation process). Accordingly, until I have Medina repainted, I'd like to get repops that Wyatt and I could install and that I would not be afraid of breaking.

@BLUPORT and
@Zymurgy -- what say you? I would be fine with 3-D plastic pieces that I could then paint in the right metallic paint finish, or that are "metallized" in some other way as per
@Big_John's suggestion.
