Fun fact: when Lotus finally revealed the Federal model of the Elise band in 2004, they didn’t say “L O T U S” on the back at all. There was uproar on the forum at the time and they let us vote whether the back would be blank, have a small Lotus round badge like the front, or the silver lettering (originally raised letters). You see what option won.
