I had a similar issue where the badges needed to be replaced. No broken pins... just badges delaminating over time.

I think older models (like mine, #509) had pins that were also used to hold the upper edge of the fender vents. I think the newer ones have countersunk screws that hold the upper edge of the fender vents and then the emblem is a stick on... and placed over the heads of the countersunk screws. I THINK.

I know the pins BDR used were longer than normal pins. If you buy a new badge with pins... you'll find that the pins aren't even long enough to get through the thickness of the fiberglass body.
