Post by: too hot on June 16, 2009, 12:33:47 pm

Does anyone know if American spec GTi`S come with a red front grille badge ?

Nope, you want a US 20th Anniversary (our 25th) rear and then just pull the letters off your front to make one up.

You can get them all ready made up, but be prepared to sell a kidney..... :chicken:

The ones you can get made up are they from a dealer or aftermarket specialist?
The reason I`m asking is I am off to the USA next week and thought I could get one over there :happy2:

It'll be a specialist, making a tidy profit too no doubt.

Just pick up two rears from the dealers, pick off the letters from your front badge, stick the red ones on and Robert's our father's brother!

How much are these badges from the dealers? I got a genuine Rabbit GTi off ebay for the rear but brought one for the the front that wasnt genuine and it lookoed poope becuause it was smaller.
