Its hard to tell for sure 'cos the photo isn't level itself, I think it looks OK though?

Your car is looking MINT

i have one suggestion tho, you should colour code your rear badge like i have, looks much nicer

did you colour code it by taking the backing plate off?

yeh, there are six rivets which hold the black plastic to the VW sign. once you've taken it apart all you need is a bit of plastic primer,wet and dry, and the colour of your choice
