stu37 0 Posted August 6, 2012 Hi guys just a quick question, I was wondering to which storms were brushed silver external badges fitted??. I purchased one some time ago and never fully understood to which model they were fitted as I believed they are all red?? Any ideas on how much they might be to purchase?

bristolbaron 10 Posted August 6, 2012 None! It's not real.. Might be worth something to someone but prob better painting it red.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stu37 0 Posted August 6, 2012 lol it must be silver in my imagination . I know what you mean about it not being red but it looks far too well made to be a replica. I bought them off a guy who had bought a bulk of badges from VW and they were all from a dealership unless he purchased it from another source....?

delfinis38 1 Posted August 6, 2012 does it have a VW part number on the rear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted August 6, 2012 its a replica, probably made by trimsport. they did lots of different badges in other colours. must admit i'd never seen a silver one, but i wouldnt be surprised if they did it. if you provide me with an invoice from vw and a stamped part no on the badge i will eat my hat. [disclaimer - my hat is made of bacon. i will eat it anyway] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted August 6, 2012 Yeah as Baz says it'll be a trimsport copy, they are good quality to be honest though but never seen a silver one before either so cant be genuine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many Thanks Nick Once again sorry for the spam :) There's no point in getting a part number - the red ones are not available from the dealer any more and the ones that come up for sale normally do so at an extortionate price :( It'd be excellent if Classic Parts reintroduced them as it'd stop the stupid profiteering that people exhibit when selling them.

stu37 0 Posted August 7, 2012 Im with you Jim, linked with ebay and people getting others to inflate the prices makes some things almost unobtainable. Do you guys know much about Trimsport? I cant find much information about them? Did or do they make badges for lots of cars? And as a few of you guys suggested no part number so no hat eating required :).
