Ok, how do you tell it is a replacement nose?
My car has been had extensive body damage so the one on it might not be
original.
I have a replacement for mine because the one on it is worse for ware.
Obviously the replacement is from a older car as only a few TR3Bs would be
newer. %^)

Well, no way to be sure without seeing the car in person, of course! But it
looks to be an earlier red/black badge, and I'd really suspect that late a 3B
to have had the TR4-style smooth letters rather than the earlier ribbed
letters.
