am looking to debage the 'back of my white GTI - how do i go about this?

can i get the dealer to do it for me? if so how much do you think they will charge?

Cheers

do it yourself its simple, warm the badge with a hairdryer and them get some dental floss between the badge and body and sort of saw it off, really easy. Then clean the sticky residue off with some paint friendly degreaser, then maybe a final polish :happy2:

duncan:
ah fantastic - didnt realise it was just stuck on with adhesive - thought it might have been screwed in..

is degreaser the best thing to use after you remove them? do i need something strong to get rid of the stickieness?

gazbutS3:
nothing to strong it might damage the paint, I actually found WD40 shifts it :smiley:, not sure if that will damage the paint long term but its only on there as minute

VC:
wd40 will take the stickness clean off

dunno about the dental floss idea...i would use cotton  :wink:
