Might sound daft bttt - why not use the small metal badge off the Fabia that is engraved with "TSI" and a coloured square in it if you want to be different? Might be a bit narrow as its about 1" wide. Probably about 1/2" longer than the Polo badge on the boot though.

Either that or just go back into the stealer and ask them to order you a Polo (not sure if they have one or if its just the Polo badge) / Golf Mk 6 TSi rear badge (if you want BIG letters) or a Passat / Jetta rear badge if you want the slimline letters.

Thanks for the help man I'll definitely check them out, I rang up VW again and I think I may be able to get the badge changed if I get the grill from them but it's £70 and I'm going to a GTI VW show next week so I might wait until then to see if I can get it cheaper although I'll check the dealer out this Saturday.

Could you show me what you mean by the Fabia TSI badge cause I google imaged Fabia TSI and the only badge I'm finding is the one that looks like this http://cdn.images.autocar.co.uk/612x408FFF...901600x1060.jpg

My old Furby (which has now gone as it tried to kill me by having an almost toal brake failure!!!)

It would have brought the vRS logo up as its the TFSI powered Fabia - Polo GTi / Ibiza Cupra equivalent.

Thanks mate! Might try it out depending on whether I can find a VW TSI, cheers for the tip!

Don't suppose you know the difference between the fitments on those two indicators I linked?

Not sure matey, the Furby`s indicator bulbs didnt give that much of a fried egg effect (never noticed TBH!) and never had one blow (had the spre kit even if i did!)

Guessing from the description that one of them has two pins opposite each other (like two parrallel lines) and the other has one pin set off compared to the other (e.g. one is in front of the other a bit or one is rotated to be a bit behind the other)

you could get the new gti grill from the dealers mate ordered mine a week ago ! haha i got my car at 17 too join the club! (again birthday present NOT spoilt I'm not exactly going to turn down a new car though)

Alright mate I've got the Polo 6R aswell and its a great car aint it. Heres a few things I've been looking at.

De-Badged Grill: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n...p;u=www.ebay.de

Chrome Front bottom grill: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n...p;u=www.ebay.de

Painted badge: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n...p;u=www.ebay.de

I'd paint the badge myself just like the idea.

I'm from the UK! Wish there was as much stuff as this on the UK eBay there's hardly anything for us!

I like the de badged grill and the chrome lower grill. Couldn't you just de badge your current grill though? Also the only thing that stopped me from debadging the front is cause of the indent in the bonnet for the badge. I really like the offset badges like these http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/5029/creambluepolo.jpg

Yeah the offset badge looks sick, and you can still buy off that ebay just pay a little extra for the shipping. Also the stickers look good hope they fit.

ah that's a bit gay about leaving a hole behind the gti badge!

Also, the bulbs are two different fitments...one has opposite pins to fit into the connector, the other has offset pins (not opposite each other)..so you need to check what yours are atm and then order the correct one! :)

just got some aftermarket hids i think its the 6000kw or something!

I know! Ah well I'll find something to fill the space, still thinking a TSI badge, only boasting like 20bhp more then rather than 110 haha

thanks for the help I'll check it out!

Driving the car back from Sutton Coldfield today so it'll finally be at my house

Also since I'm new to the whole dub scene I wanted some advice, I was looking at these coillies http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...e=STRK:MEWAX:IT I was just wondering whether they'd be any good, I'm on a limited budget seeing as my only income is from my part time Morrisons job and I'm broke at the minute!
