The overriders on the 4A and 250 arewider on the bumper than the TR4. The
badge bar will have to be longer. The present bar that I have made WILL NOT
fit the 4A or 250 unless a TR4 bumper has benn installed. I hope to produce
the 4A and 250 badge bar in a couple of months. Those who are interested,
stay tuned.
Thanks!
