Just need to get rid of that bling VW badge and the awful indicators...

Badge clips in so not difficult and the indicators have one screw each and slide out - the bulb holders twist off....

I'm not sure I quite like the chrome badge, I'm looking for a new shiny one, I looked at the black one but I don't like it as much, I'm on the look out for the OEM gti badge but they're a bit dear, it could be an aftermarket one for a while I think,

I never thought about the indicators, never noticed them before now.  I quite like my black side ones though I might keep them :)

If the side ones are marked up Hella they are quite rare items and you should keep them, I've been looking for a set of Hella clear ones for over 2 years...

You can pick up clear OEM bumper ones at good prices... I paid over £50.00 for mine when VW Classic re-did them...

Good condition GTI badges are expensive... I saw a used one in not so good condition sell for over £50...

yeah, I'm considering buying another grill just for the badge, although I've got my mate that works at Audi on the case to price them through their parts as well, but I reckon a wee cheap one might do just now :)

I'll check the side ones, I think they'll just be cheap ones though,

I can't wait to get the exhaust off it, I want the original twin pipe one on it, it's a big, huge Scorpion back box and silencer on it just now.  I think it looks bad.  I'm hoping I can just add a backbox but I think I'll need the silencer too :(  I don't know if I'd be able to sell the Scorpion when it comes off, it'd be good to put some money towards the original one.

the steering wheel and BBS alloys too, oh I could do with a lottery win at the week end :)

If you're buying a new badge make sure they confirm the clips aren't broken it makes a difference between tat and gold!  :wink: :grin:
You should see my rear box dam cannon!  :lipsrsealed:
