Unfortunately Steve they might be very hard to find, I have only ever seen a couple of sets for sale.
If you could find one you could probably get some cast.

The metal Star Twin badges are like this...

unfortunately my bike did/does not have these type of badges.
I've seen them crop up on ebay once or twice and they have gone for well over £100, the ones I've seen have been brass. One of our members here sold some a while ago, his name was bezabill and has not been on forum since 23rd May of last year I presume he has sold his bike.
