It's on my to-do list to get a set of black front and rear badges for the Polo, and remove the 'Polo' lettering from the boot (people always say "is that a Golf", might as well make it harder for them!). VAGParts is the place to go if you are lazy like me and don't have the time to black your own badges, plsu you get to keep your originals if you need them in the future - drop the guys a line in the VAGParts forum at the bottom of the main page
Cheers

That, and no-one really knows about the GTi and just associate the nearest thing to it, ie. a Golf GTi. Everyone who isn't clued up about the GTi seems to think it's a 1.0-litre with badging and fancy lights/wheels

yep that is very true, most people don't know that a Polo GTi was made. heck they probably won't even believe it when they see the new Polo GTi coming down the street hehe

Hi. Got my front black badge from the dealer. It comes painted. Apparently it was used for the german army. So try your local dealer. I think it was around £13.00
