Cheers guys.

Got the red GTI badges from OEMPL.US, weren't exactly cheap but think they look ace and make it a little bit different!

Only used turtle wax and chamois dry, always works a treat!

Yeah, they're the ones.
Originally was only going to try it and see if it looked any good and if i didn't like it flog it on ebay, but I broke the original on the front so it had to go on then, i really like it though so not too bothered that the original broke!

Lovin the grey and the red badges do look  :cool:

Mat ed30, I bought the genuine anniversay MK4 badge and converted to the MK5 holder and to this day it still looks the biz (done nearly two years ago) but the same can't be said about the 'cheaper' rear one as it is now going orangey  :sad:
