Idea I had about rear badges

Was cleaning my car earlier and having a think about my rear badges. After putting the black/colour coded badge on the back, the silver 'polo' and 'gti' badges don't really look right anymore so I was thinking about options for them. Came up with...
1. Taking them off and getting a sticker made up for the back window, similar to this:

2. Painting them black to match badge (leaving the red part of the 'I' as it is.
3. Just taking them off altogether
What does everyone think?

I personally don't like the idea of the black lettering.
I think the letters from the 25th anni gti would look great on your car. (silver as opposed to red lettering).

Ahh, that would be why I didn't get it. I'm only a mere female so I don't know these things - should have asked my brother!!

Funny you should say that, I was looking at lettering on ebay last night and say the anni gti lettering (red and silver) so think I might get one and see how that looks!

I would suggest taking all the lettering off the back.
It looks much cleaner

Does anyone know if the red anniversary badge was an OEM part or where I could get one?
I'm reluctant to take the badges away altogether!

When i was looking into getting the anniversary badge, i found that Ebay.com seemed to be the place to look. They also come with the rabbit aswell which you might like.
Actually take a look at this link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/RABBIT-HARE-GTI-BAD ... dZViewItem
Is a UK based company who's selling them!
