What I wanted to know was, for the rear, how are people able to paint the rear badge, I keep asking body shops and they say they can't do it for me?
(usually being painted body color).

You need to remove the entire boot release mechanism from the car body, then prise off the VW symbol. Then you can paint the background.

It's an easy job I done it myself before and your local body shop can't do it? What idiots. :grin:
