just a point... (pointless maybe) but I have seen some Mark 4's with the rear wiper removed and it looks quite slick with the back debadged as well....
personal preference i guess, i have been thinking of doing it since my rear wiper is not working

If the pipe has come off in the lining you would see a damp patch on the left hand side looking in from the boot.
