Very impressive,looks far better than I thought it would,did you lacquer over the top?
Where did you source the skins-EBay??

No need for lacquer with this paint is a kind of plastic finish. Yeah eBay for the skins I actually sent my badges to the guy and he sorted them and sent them back

Nice one,have they been done a while?
Do you think they’ll weather well and survive plenty of washing long term??

Yeah did them last summer, I'm gonna take them off again and do some more coats of black and re apply the vinyl, the right hand side one has started showing a couple of specks of chrome. The others are all fine. Been through a few hand car washes so they've faced the pressure washer plenty of times.

I bought one of these key rings - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/743075221/vw-key-ring-golf-gtd-gti-gte-checked?ref=hp_rv-6&pro=1&frs=1

I have been trying to obtain a genuine VW one for ages but they seem to be discontinued.

Thanks for the offer, but already spent £6 on the one above so another £12 would take it to £18... on key rings... for a car I can’t even drive atm lol. 🤦‍♂️

Cheers. Should have asked on here instead of searching online in the first place. Lesson learned!

Yeah, I cant remember how much it was tbh but I'm sure it was more than 12 quid, I dont own a Gti any longer so I'm currently thinking of spending 35 quid for a key ring for a car I cant even drive...... :rolleyes:

Why were they so expensive out of interest?
