Doesnt look too bad actually - although I'd like to know how much the bonnet would cost to fill in so that curve isnt there for the top of the badge.....

Would not look like those pictures. The bonnet has a curve where the badge sits so you would need to get it filled. Looks crap otherwise!

I'd go down the black badge route rather than fart around filling in the bonnet arch..I think that smartens the front up IMO  :cool:

Robin...always loved the badgeless dubs :lipsrsealed:

The front end weld plated and filled should be no more than £150 painted...i did the old transporter vent on my old mk3 and looked the nuts and was a quality job by a local geezer
