That's a reeaaaally old picture :)

If you de-badge the car it's like you've something to hide.  People see the GTI badge and think "oh aye, only a GTI, I'll have that".  Then you can surprise them :)

The double bluff maneuver  :evil:
That be the one   :grin:
That's the look I'm going for.  I always thought MK4's were heavy and slow until I got one and R-tech'd it.  I guess most on the road will see the gti badge and think it's a walkover  :evil:
