I just read this thread as I also am looking for a 70mm bonnet badge. Looks like it took a bit of a wrong turn, lol.

Thank you for the feedback everyone. That link to a new one on eBay seems like an option, if only it was £5 and not £35! This is the cheapest I can find on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180946799495?ul_noapp=true

Are you able to show a photo from the side, which should show the badge protruding slightly at the bottom?

Better off buying a genuine badge if you want perfection. I tried the ebay replica badge, bit couldn't live with the ill fitting cheaper version, so ended up buying genuine.

Agreed. I'm too OCD to have an ill fitting badge!

Luckily I'm not looking for a bonnet badge. When I need a front bumper assembly badge shall I ask here? 😎

FINAL UPDATE:

I bought this badge: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180946799495?ul_noapp=true for £33 and it fits perfectly.
See the photos below. I added rubber washers behind and secured them with Gorilla glue and it holds strong. You can also see the fixings and where I removed the grill to place the washers on the back of the bonnet badge lugs.
