Debadged looks loads better, but dont forget you will have to have the bonnet and bumper filled where the badge indents into them tho :undecided:

De-badged without a doubt.  However.......have you considered a compromise?  You have a dark car, save the expense of filling and painting etc and have a trial with a black badge.  I have seen a few Mk IV's in different colours with black badges and they all look spot on, inlcuding the dark cars.  My mota is black and I should recieve the black badge in the next few days - ebay £8.00!  I'll update the photo in my signature once it's on. :smiley:

aaargh man - ah divvent na whats gannin on...... :sad:

definately debadged, since I seen your pic edit I think I will treat myself to one also, to have it painted should cost around 30/40 quidish I would imagine :cool:
