Red gti badge front
« on: July 05, 2009, 12:03:21 pm »
after a red gti badge for the front grill, had a look on oemplus but prices are shocking!! anyone had a look at these on ebay??
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-GOLF-20TH-ANNIVERSARY-GTI-BADGE-POLO-RABBIT-LUPO-RED

would it do the job if i pick the gti off the plinth and stick the red ones on??

cheers

dental floss has been recommended by loads of other people so I give it a  :happy2:

You'll still need to polish the area afterwards to get rid of any residue.

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

My rear badge got replaced under warranty and they stuck the new one on pi$$ed so I bought ANOTHER one from the dealer a few weeks later, only to notice when I was doing the 3rd badge they pulled paint off with it under closer inspection! So be carefull!
All covered up now with the new one.
Anyway can't you just buy this red badge from the dealer????? :confused:
