Yeah front one is a bit too 'pink' but if you look at the other pics there is a nice example of a black rear 'VW' badge, looks good (maybe a bit too dark black on black), fancy having a crack at yours maxamus, complete the pair!?  :smiley:

I've just ordered the front one - £25. Saves me painting myself! How would you remove the rear badge as its part of the tailgate release?

My local VW dealer said he will do the rear badge for me for £30.
Hes going touse matt affect spray paint just like the front. He said there is no difference between spray paint and tin paint but spray paint is easier to apply and easier to layer up.

Now i just need to find some time when i can drop car off for a few hours...........

Thats a bit too dark. Just looks like a black circular hole on the boot and you cant see the "VW". Im gonner go for a dark grey (just like my front badge) so that the "VW" is more noticable.

I like the front VW logo in black, but the rear looks pants. The red GTI logo looks tacky IMO and why swap chrome for paint when under the bonnet it goes the other way around?
