Front Debadged Grill?

Had a quick look around and i can only really see one - but it doesnt look like the same pattern as my GTI lower grills.

The car goes back to the bodyshop in a month to get the boot smoothed and was thinking about getting the bonnet gap (above the badge) filled in and having a plain grill istead of the GTI one?

Anyone got this done - or have any pictures?

See to me the badge is the finishing touch. That Polo looks great, but the badge would make it perfect ;)

Neil, your best bet is to pick up a genuine Kamei grille for a quality debadged item. I had one for a while but changed my mind about fitting it and sold it on. There is a picture of a Polo GTi dropped over Ronals with a debadged grille floating about.

i was gonna get a debadged grill then realised that the badge looks alot better on rather than off and the quality is crap unless u spend loads on a kamei grill
