you can fit any badge, they just clip on (although you may snap a clip or two when removing from the golf!! I just add some body trim tape for extra security)

Depends on the grille.

When I first got my Vento front, it had a horrific debadged late grille, and I put the GTI grille badge on it in an attempt to make it look less horrific.

When I got my facelift and then my early grille.... The space between the slats was too large for the GTI badge to clip in (not that I wanted to), and the early grille too small.

That particular debadged grille would have looked better in the bin   :grin:

Swapped it directly for a facelift badged one with someone after 2 days of Vento front ownership, so was well in the end...
