I like it alot, think it will look smashin with steel grey, you got a link for where you got it from pal?
You can buy the Red GTI badge on ebay for about £7 ish, I know cos ive been looking since Nathan spilled the beans to me about his badge!

I know for def it suits your car Mark  :laugh:

Try this, they have some good stuff and the P&P is very reasonable  :grin:

I fully removed the GTI badge at the front, as I find it somewhat 'cheap' looking. I like the clean and symmetrical look without the badge.
There's some plastic filling up the honeycomb behind the badge, I removed that using a stanley knife and some sanding.

If I were to keep the badge, I'll probably go for the red badge as Greenouse has.

there are many GTI25th badges around.. ive had 4 and they all faded in the sun and start to discolour..

the Original 25th badge is available from dealers they want £29.99!!

so i purchased the full red one off ebay a few months ago and the guy who made it used an original mk5 gti grillle badge and sprayed it red it hasnt faded or anything yet.. trying to contact him for a laser blue version  :cool:

I must admit the front does look kinda better somewhat wider without the badge on the grille its just the way people see it as most are drawn to the red GTI badge before the honeycomb grille ect lol
