Nice looking car you have. Just a question, how did you do that to your rear badge?

Nice pics. Not so sure about the boot badge. If you were gonna do that, why not filler it and use a remote boot popper instead?

Very nice mate, Good spec on the motor by the looks of it. Was it like that when you bought it or is this work you have done to it yourself?
(Could look even nicer if the red lip on the alloys was white/grey, but red on the black car also looks ace)
What are your future plans for it...lower it, hint hint!

cheers. The rear badge is a temporary measure while i source a new mechanism. I just levered it off with a screw driver sprayed it with an acrylic black and  then glued it back on.

i have had the car a couple of years now and it was standard when i got it but i got the badges and wheels a few months ago and a new apline head unit the other day. I am waiting for a payout from the mod for an injury i got in afghan last year and then i am going for eibech sportsline, some kind of induction kit and the stage 1 revo. I had the trial the other day and i loved it but i cant afford it yet. I am thinking of a new exhaust system but i am not sure what yet. I had a mk4  and after a while the new exhausts loud noise did my head in can anyone recomend a decent exhaust where the noise wont be any louder but throatier and a decent induction kit. Cheers guys
