VW will only supply the rear VW badge/emblem together with the opening mechanism.
Without traction power is nothing!

Yes. With some patience and a credit card you can pry it off if you have a certain type of badge

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?
