Title: GTI front badge is here
Post by: bobbarley on 28 March 2008, 19:18

The question is, should I put it on the left or right hand side of the grill as you look at it?  Also, should I left, centre or right align it? ;)

Left, looking at the car from the front, there is a place to locate it on your grill :afro: :wink:

I imagine it'll slow it anywhere though?

it should go on the left (drivers side) as there is a grove in the grill for it

personally i think the all silver front badge should only be put on the anniversaries, and the polo badge (red i (same as the rear)) should be used on non anni's

i've got a polo GT badge on the front of mine, all i did was put 2 small pieces of no more nails double sided pads on the top of the legs, these then secure it on the grill (in an unpainted position)
