Funky!.... did something similar to my front badge, didn't look right, looks good on yours though. :afro:

thanks, i thought id like it more than i do, hopefully not look as bad once wheels are done and theres a bit more red to tie it in

cant decide what to do with front, dont wanna debadge but dont want it staying chrome, might black the grill and spray the vw red, but then it might start looking like a scrap yard part.

anyone got any ideas?

I say don't do it... would look rough on a car like yours... maybe do shadow painting like this



Will tie in with what you're doing but not OTT. :afro:

Thats perfect, never thought of that way, would tie in perfectly with the alloys too, tempted to re do back badge in same way now

grrr, got a puncture, went to get it repaired and the nail has gone through an old repair, now tyre is useless, so now i have to pull my finger out and get the alloys sorted, but now i have to sell my k03s to fund the tyres. pissed off a bit :angry: car looks so depressing with the spare on

LOVE the stickerbomb heater surround. How did you do that??
Would be very interested in doing that to mine!

Alloys = tidy
shadowed badges = tidy
heater/stereo surround = damn funky! :afro:

I love the wheels but I can't help thinking the all red rears don't really tie in with the rest of the car now. Personally i'd go with either darker rear lights or some red detailing on the wheels :undecided:

100% agree some darker rear lights would suit much better
