Vintage Kuwahara Bicycle Head Badge Emblem – 3D Embossed Aluminum in White, Gold & Red (NOS / New Old Stock with Peel-and-Stick Adhesive)

Elevate your old-school BMX build, vintage Japanese road bike, or retro restoration with this authentic Kuwahara Bicycle Head Badge Emblem. Highly coveted by OSBMX collectors, Kuwahara enthusiasts, and vintage frame restorers, this emblem features the classic Kuwahara logo crest rendered in 3D embossed aluminum with a crisp white background, metallic gold accents, and rich red enamel detailing.

Preserved in rare NOS (New Old Stock) condition, this head badge displays sharp relief stamping and vivid period-correct coloring. Unlike unmounted metal badges, this piece comes equipped with pre-applied heavy-duty peel-and-stick adhesive backing, allowing for clean, instant, tool-free installation directly onto your frame's head tube.

Please Note: Equipped with a pre-applied self-adhesive backing. The pliable embossed aluminum allows easy hand-bending to conform precisely to your head tube's exact curvature before peeling the protective liner for an instant, secure bond.
