Eventually I'll probably get a GTI Grill, spray the iconic red piping black and take the GTI badge off and replace it with the following badge. Still looks OEM and your not offending any GTi owners!

Could any of you 6r owners tell me the diameter of your rear VW emblem please? :D I'm considering a cheeky retrofit as the 6r badge looks much more modern 8)

You can do but it leaves a plastic scar I guess you could call it unless you replace it. I got a GTI grill for my 1.2 and like you didn't want to seem like I was saying I had a GTI engine haha, instead of replace it I just carbon wrapped it, makes it pretty much invisible

Well I kinda did just state I hade AMG wheels ;)

And thanks ppl. Was thinking bout green strips like on the pic I posted with black badge and not sure bout black or green AMG badge. Think green may look too much thinking bout just getting it black.

But I'd rather find a honey comb grill without the GTI badge. AMG idea is my last resort
