boot handle/badge replacement
« on: September 08, 2009, 09:02:30 am »
i have an 05 which has the single peice badge on the boot handle.
i would like to replace it with a two peice so i can get my carbon fix and just generally give my backside a bit more "summink"

i rememeber someone getting on on ebay but cant find the thread... anyone help out?

or is main stealers only place to get one?

bear in mind no more mods till end of oct due to GF's new car :sad1:
fanx in advance

iirc the newer badge protrudes a little more than your present one...

Don't like the new badge, it's not smooth like the old badge.

i,m sorta ok with that. its either gotta be a feature-shiny carbon etc or i make it dissapear and flush,which is cool but more money than i wanna spend before colour coding wheels seats carbon more carbon etc the list is long :ashamed:

maxi- what did you type in for ebay to find it and was it major pain to fit?
as i said in original thread i really like it!
i wanna lay the carbon underneath the black enmblem methinks

ooh just a thought-you got the stealers one for sale? if so pm some pics?
mine just looks a bit non descript i think/?
thanks for the link
