Check the link out for vector based artwork. You can open this up in Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw.

Gttdi,

I want something exactly like this so its in relation to the size of the rear "GTI" badge. This is the type of scale i would like because i am going to put it next to the rear badge as shown in the illustration.




I dont know what height the GTI lettering is though on the boot (can someone check?). I think theres a standard text height that VW use for all Golf rear badges.

1x Colour = White and Red mouth (as shown)
1x Colour = A Very Dark Grey (almost a matt/dull black) and Red mouth
1x Colour = Black with Red Mouth

Maxamus, on a die cut type badge those thin lines would not last past the first wash imo

Yes but if the FAST was any bigger then it would look too big and i dont want it to be over-powering over the rear GTI badge

Im sure it would work in die cut. Just means when it comes to washing - more care will be needed around that area
What would be even better is if it was a proper badge made from steel that we stick on  :cool:
Now theres an idea worth persuing.....

well yes, you would not be able to go anywhere near it, which could making washing impossible near your badge

this vinyl does stick pretty well once the surface has been prepped properly with degreaser and take a bit of getting off
