Title: front badge colour
Post by: mattypgolf on January 19, 2011, 01:30:57 pm
Not sure what colour to do my front badge,, Matt black, gloss black (like the bit behind the number plate) or maybe red (something different)

Any comments

P.s rear is going to be coded, red with black badge

I always use photoshop to try things like this out first, It will give you a good idea of what the finished job will look like.  I'm not a fan of colour coded badges in general, I think they look best in silver or black.

I've got a red one and think it goes quite well with the red GTI stripe around the grille. I think black would get lost in the grille.

Heres a picture to help you decide.
