Not bad, would look much better if you removed the Polo and 1.2 badges
Must remember to do the 'Josh' badge mod soon, keep saying I will but never get round to it.

do you paint only the front of the badge and not the inner part?

Thank you KarlM about the photos and about the comment.
vwpower, the chrome part of the badge is now black and as an idea i paineted the grey plastic behind it reflex silver the colour of the car.

I really like the effect on the front badge. Are the "behind bits" painted the same silver as the metalwork, or are they they original gray plastic.
I like the idea that you can catch glimpses of this colour only from certain angles. It's the sort of thing that would make someone stop and take a second look, which is a good thing, ihmo.
Deek.

Really like the two-tone front badge.
The rear? Hmm, might look better if you'd painted the whole thing matt black Polo GT/G40 styleee
Just my 2p

Seen it in real life (front badge)!
Looked like a de-badged grille at first and then as I drove past, I saw the silver - looked good

Just noticed....
Looked at my sisters MK4 Golf and she has the same mod!

(except the badge is still chrome) She didn't have it done as she only just got the car. Is this an idea you got from another site SiDaBa?
