Bebadged FK Grill

Post by bstardchild »

Excuse the double post but I posted under the group buy and now I had a rethink and thought here would be better

My Group buy Grill arrived today :lol: Fast postage - well impressed

Fitted it and I am so not sure about it :roll:

I'm sure that it would look better with a black badge in the std grill?

Opinions?

So turned my attention to the but end of the car and de-badged it - well just the polo bit - already done the 1.4CL bit as soon as i bought the car

Image

No I'm absolutely convinced that a black badge is going on the ar*e end

Ahhh nice idea if you've got a 16V but I don't think they do a 8V badge and I'm certainly not badging it up as something it's not - you've got me thinking tho and I like that - anyone know if you can still get the red MKIII GT badges or are they part of the grill...... I'll ask in the MKIII forum

It would be different then..... :lol:

And with me split rims - lowered a bit - it'll start to perform (round the corners at least) like a GT

It's all a bit spread out (votes wise) isn't it?

So if I'm in two minds it looks like I'm not wrong or right!!!! :roll: :lol:

I assume the one vote for the std grill don't count :lol:

Keep Voting chaps (and chappesses) Straw poll of 10 votes out the entire membership doesn't exactly come out as overwhelming :shock:

I've ordered a Black front badge for me std grill just in case

One or other will be re-sold on :roll:

Mind you I cleaned the car yesterday and gave it a coat of polish - its growing one me ------- slowly!!!!

Keep it!

Its just the start of the modifying. It will look good along with other mods upfront like a 16v bumper.

Don't like the 16V bumper at all - bit gappy IMHO - besides I have to put the rear one on too and chances of finding both undamaged at a breakers in candy white are...... well lets not go there!!! :lol:

I think that grill suits darker cars like dragon green and black but not so sure on white cars

I've got one on my dragon green mk4 and love it :) one of the best mods ive done

My brother has a late Candy white Vento VR and the grille is colour coded from the factory. Just a thought.

Regarding 16v bumpers, I do like the smoother version with the outer grilles filled available from R&A 8)
