Kinda. Not fully debadge - the VW logo would stay, albeit in black. Still not sure whether I should keep the stripe red or paint it black like the OP.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Phil Ive just not got round to changing the fog grill,  I got the full grill set off a lad on another forum and its what came not sure why???

Cal Tdi it cost me about £25 for material which was about 4 meters of feux black suede and proper heat resistant automotive fabric glue...it has to be heat resistant other wise the fabric unsticks and sags down or bubbles up.  There is a couple of things I still would like to take out and redo but for the moment its okay. And it took me about 2 days in all to do myself

Scott Ill get some of the gear knob close up im not sure how much they cost cos it was in the car when I bought it along with the gti steering wheel and MFD2.

Thanks for the kind words all of you 

Darren

Ok well im confused now! No idea what you want to do!  :laugh: :laugh:

For me, full debadge = remove GTI from grille + remove VW from grille + remove GTI, ED30 and VW from back
What I want = remove GTI from grille + black VW badge. But if you remove the GTI, you get a plastic tab left over on the grille where the GTI was stuck. Would have to mod the grille to get of this. If I later wanted to add back the GTI, new grille needed!

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Yeah but yours is vinyl-covered! :P

It's bad enough I'm gonna have to hide those rims once I bought them so no one knows I spent £££ on it. Now you're tempting me with the grille!

Begone she-devil!
