I had both on mine, I did think debadged was better but a black grill badge can look as good.

In my Dub Rides thread, you'll find me debating with myself and others over about 20 pages of whether to keep the debadged look or not, in the end I chose not too as from certain angles it looked pretty gay.


It can look really mean and aggressive when looking at it dead on, but most other angles it looks like a poncy girl lol! Keep the badge, and black all indicators and badges.

I agree with shady it only looks good when looking straight at it, other angles it just looks odd! Id keep it as vw intended!

I brought mine debadged, but seeing as I have no rear or side badges, I have left the debadged front grill on :)
