....Thanks, Komenda, I found that all very interesting. I've seen the swastika within a cog wheel but a long time ago and didn't know it was representing VeeDub :smiley:

well i emailed the guy with the part number and got this:

Quote
Stephen,
             The part number you have given us is an old number which has been superseded by another, as we're not a VW dealer we don't have access to supersession part numbers.
 
Mike
VWS


??? he cant find the part number for the GTI.. surly it would be a simple bloody thing to do?

How much did you guys pay for the front VW badge in grill from the dealers?



EDIT: Just rang dealer and he has dozens in stock. £15.26 incl VAT. Going to pick one up this weekend  :smiley:

How easy is it to remove and replace?

Just twist it a quarter turn to the left and pull, comes off easy.

....Not that easy on mine! I had to remove the grill. But I'm happy because my CF badge is secured.

im gonna let VW paint the badge for me and then install it. My cars going in this week to get a few things done under warranty so see how it goes.
Im gonna go for a satin look, not 100% black but around 75% so its a dark grey
