Hey, there's nothing wrong with black badges. I have 2 ! Only because it's a subtle atlernative to a de-badged grill, which I personally only like on mk1&2's !
Might look weird on a mk4 though ! :undecided:

No pics sorry mate, i painted the badge and the back, but it was too much, so just did the back now
