Well had the polo a minth now and finally decided to do it...

A hairdryer some masking tape and a knife and 5mins later ive debadged the tailgate...sweet.

Warmed up the badges protected paint and carefully lifted them off. Some swift super resin to lift the remnants and jos a good un.

Id recomend to all unless you have a gti lol

Sorry if it came across that way! The point I was making, is the only difference between my Polo TSI and the basic model Polo, is the badge and the Boavista alloys. If i debadged it fully, then it could potenially be a 1.2 S with Boavista replicas. Maybe i'm looking too far into it (as usual) but to be on the safe side i'll keep them on :)

Lol no offence taken AJ, :D
If we all did he same thing modding would be boring. I used to own a mk2 golf i used to show and i removed more than i put on for the clean look, then you get the purists saying its not original. I cant see me doin to much to it as. Think VW got it pretty right. Would like oem alloys if a set came up
