In the future, I might agree but need to see how it looks in the flesh.

Not a big fan of CF either.

From a distance it may look like just a black emblem but looks bettter as you get closer.

anything is better than the current silver one IMO, CF or black painted looks alot more subtle thats why so many people do it!  :smiley:

I actually like the current silver one! Contrasts nicely with the blackness of the car.

....There is also a tradition for black VW badges on GTI's going back to Mk1's - That's why I did mine, but I brought it up to date by using carbonfibre.
