hey guys, any one know if the rear VW badge is stuck on or cliped in?

and also the written POLO is that jst stuck on?

The rear VW badge is stuck on but there is an indent behind it.

The POLO badge is just stuck on

thx mate!
if changing the original VW badge 2 the black ones do i av 2 like use special glue? or normal superglue will do?

i was also thinkin of just sandpaperin the chrom off the badge an resprayin u fink that b ok? or look 2 cheap haha

I wouldn't superglue anything to the car if I was you, get yourself some trim repair tape from Halfords

There's nothing wrong with spraying the badges, plenty of people have done it

thx 4 the advice mate!!

Whats the best way of removing the rear badge, is it just a case of heating with a hair drying and pealing off?

If its the lettering you're on about, yes, heat it up a little and use some thin cotton or similar (dental floss!) to "saw" behind the badge and remove it from the tailgate.

As for the VW roundel, if it is a warm day you can just pull this off with your bare hands! I removed my black badge on Monday evening with no heating up at all.

Incidentally, I have a genuine black rear and black front VW badge for sale if you are after one. I have a buyer for the front badge if you are only after the back one too! For sale post is here.

Cheers

Yeh i was on about the back badge, thanks for letting me know that u got one for sale, but ive already got one, just made it myself by just spraying it.
Ill try just peeling it off anyway, hopefully tommorow is a hot day....

I've never heated any of my badges to get them off.

My GTi badge was taken off at 7:20am (not exactly a warm time of day) just using a bit of cotton, then some WD40 and my fingers to get the sticky residue off
