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

But then you get all the non knowledgeable people thinking your Polo TSI is a Polo S 1.2(60). No tar... think i'll leave my badge on

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,
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
