Phil - Other than as an Association badge they would be incorrect. I helped out at the Association for a while so have a bit of background. The car badge is a legit Association item and the badge in that form was adopted by the Association as mentioned above. There are several spurious badges in the museum, as there are in many museums. Spean Bridge Museum was a great place to visit, unfortunately I believe it is in the process of relocating.
Hoping this helps

PS - I knew a Brigadier who had one of these badges on his car, he called into a garage to have some work done - to his surprise the work was done for free. The Garage owner, unbeknown to him was a former Commando.
