Do the badge skins just stick over the original badges? Is it an easy job to do?

They might look good on my incoming indium Grey GTi.  :smiley:

I was thinking of same for mine but gloss black as red looks a bit like up-badging.

Yes, they do. The Badgeskins website has a section showing how to apply them. Link;

Yes going red is a bit of up badging but given only experts like us guys would know that I think it's ok. To most people it will just look that bit better and they will not even know the badges were changed.

I wonder if Mk7 GTi "red" badges will ever increase in value. I used to own a Corrado VR6 Storm and the badges on that to replace would now cost a small fortune  :laugh:

How long does delivery take? I've emailed them days ago but not heard back. Not great for customer service.

I got an email confirmation almost immediately and badgeskins arrived within a week from the US.

GTI PP badges are beautiful looking things although I'm not sure if they will increase in value :undecided:
I might order a spare set just in case though :wink:
