Mk6 beveled 3D is the best option.

As to paint or vinyl, up to you. Wrap is the easy option, just pop the emblem off and your good to go. I removed the emblem on my latest Mk6 one, painted/colour coded the backing of mine and then put it on my car....

Which Black one did you buy as they usually don't fit the 3D Mk5 mech? Not to sorry you.  :happy2:

That's a Mk6 3D beveled one. Will be a direct fit onto a Mk6 rear handle/mech but IIRC need a fit of fiddling to get it to fit a Mk5 handle.

Contact Simon (brookesb32 on here) as he's the man when it comes to modding these and can point you in the right direction.

Ahh right cool. I assume it's just a few clips need adjusting I'll do a search on it.

Thanks again
