dannywhiteley Posted November 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 (edited) Cheers... style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />The rear VW badge is being done all black this weekend hopefully, to match the front (that is also going to stay full black). Did ponder on the red accents, but I think any more red will be overload. And the other badges are being removed. Got another idea instead of using the exisitng GT and 16V badges...

Lupo D Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Hello Danny...Please let me know a thing...I'm ready to buy the kamei's front grill like your...but...how can you do for got the space to fit the VW emblem...Can you help me??? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> Thank you,D.

dannywhiteley Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Right, the Kamei grill obviously needs the space filling in the bonnet if you are going badge-less, but as I am working on a very tight budget, I didnt have the money to pay to get it filled and painted.So, I took the original grill badge, and split the front (chrome) part of the emblem from the grey plastic bit behind it so it would lie flat on the kamei grill, and then stuck it in place. Works very well and is cheap style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />Still need to do the rear badge in black to match, fit the aero front wipers, stubby drivers mirror and remove the GT and 16V badges from the back. Then I am leaving it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next stage of mods, i.e. retrim, repaint, coilovers, body mods (smoothing etc) are outside of my budget for the foreseeable future.

dannywhiteley Posted March 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Cheers for the comments. To be honest, i'll probs leave the tele's as they are. The whole point of me swapping the wheels and interior etc, was to get it back looking normal again, and as I may be selling it shortly, wont be spending anything else on it.I prefer it now, the grey interior may seem pretty boring, but after all the red its got a nice unfussy look to it.

lupodave Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 How come you're selling it? For a GTI or a completely new 'dub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywhiteley Posted March 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 The situation is, that im looking at moving house soon, and if we get the one we want then the missus can use the scooter for work as its a lot close, only be 3-4 miles down the road.I will then go back to using our 06 plate Fiesta zetec S, so I can sell the Lupo and will be Dub-less.
