Title: VR6 Highline Rear VW Badge
Post by: CM690 on 06 July 2011, 23:50
Just seen this on ebay and was pretty interest to be honest although I don't think it's worth the rather... high price tag  :drool: £35 for a badge not sure if I want it.

Anyone got any pictures of their mk3 (or any mk3) with this badge on? Want to see if it looks good before I shell out that kind of money on something like that!

Was this an OEM feature of the VR6 highline?

Yeah I thought that :rolleyes: This is an aftermarket thing then? Might not bother just stick to my black VW badge then

 So what's different from standard on that then? :undecided:

Not much apart from trying to get £35 for it  :rolleyes:

Hmm.. I'm really tempted to buy one think it looks awesome but at £35-£50 I think it's ridiculous  :grin:

Neither do I, especially considering that the mk3 Highlines ceased production before those later type VW badges came into use.

ill get a pic later

Me and ben picked up a highline the other day and its not got one on it, that car has had a new tailgate tho because iv took the colour coded spoiler for mine (for when car gets painted) and even tho bens car is a metalic black, the spoiler had traces of mulburry, so this is prob why the badge is missing on his car


I do like the highline badge
