Where can I buy a black front VW badge?
Or do you all just paint them?

I got mine from dubstop imports. Had it for around three years I reckon and it's not chipped/marked etc.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Front from    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Golf-MK5-Black-Front-Grille-Badge-Emblem-Gloss-New-/170716142914?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27bf799d42
  Rear painted with Plastikote gloss black :happy2:

Unless they have separated it from the main plastic housing that doesn't look like a MK5 badge to me.

Use the search function, there are plenty of threads covering this topic!  :chicken:

I was searching for this yesterday, and found a few good comments about Dubstop Int, so placed my order last night...

This is for the "VW" piece only and not the back piece which fixes to the grill.It is good quality and good shine. I have since found it cheaper :rolleye:

 All the clips/pins are on the rear and line up perfectly
