Roger Chatfield 0 Posted October 6, 2015 Anyone see wheeler dealers? Edd sorted out the red front grill VR6 badge by using a sticker... It actually looked spot on. So, anyone know where to get them? And is it possible to get them in chrome? Rog. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomi 10 Posted October 6, 2015 Yeah, that was a cool idea with stickers, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted October 7, 2015 Shouldn't be to hard to find someone to make them . Relatively cheap I would have thought . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaiser7 10 Posted October 13, 2015 Sent my rear badges away to be rechromed. Not 100% happy with the finish though, its a bit pitted in some areas but miles better than the faded brushed ones. Before After Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Chatfield 0 Posted October 14, 2015 I wonder if they can be Aqua dipped? Rog. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
georgaco 10 Posted October 21, 2015 Who could say which vr6 models/years were wearing the red and which the grey vr6 badge??? Never got to figure it out..... Mine is a european 92 and she is wearing the grey ones... Thks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diarmaid16 1 Posted October 21, 2015 For vr6s upto '93 (engines with distributor), theses had the red vr6 badge. From '94 on (coil pack engines), these were grey badges. I think! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ManAtMachine 10 Posted October 26, 2015 I ve just got this knocked up. Probably have a red and polished VRT version soon. Then I may look into a way to fix to front as you can probably see this is rear only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easypops 8 Posted October 26, 2015 Tried this tonight, not the best as I couldn't find my scalpel..... So had to use a blade only, looks better in the photo and I'm unsure how long it would last anyway. Didn't do any proper prep as this was only a first attempt, still hoping that the actual stickers can be sourced :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted October 26, 2015 I posted up on Friday . The badge is with the graphic shop and hopefully I will have some news tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ManAtMachine 10 Posted October 26, 2015 Whats the problem with a can of red spray paint? Forgive my ignorance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easypops 8 Posted October 26, 2015 Trying to avoid the intricate masking that would be needed to retain the black parts, plus a sticker is reversible. That's how I see it anyway, others may differ :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delfinis38 1 Posted October 29, 2015 Good find.. Wonder if it's for a golf or corrado... From a study rob did I think one of the letter shapes is slightly different. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fine wine, Belgian chocs. 1 Posted October 29, 2015 Hmmm, very interesting. I replaced my rear VR6 badge with a new genuine one about ten years ago or maybe more. The one I was supplied was exactly the same as these cheapy chinese copies. Reckon I'll order me one and see what it's like. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted October 29, 2015 The rear badge is rounded , so you cannot apply the sticker . It would curl up on the edge . I have painted my one . The front is on order and I will have news on Monday . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManAtMachine 10 Posted October 30, 2015 What size are the front badges out of curiosity, anyone got a measuring stick that can tell me? They seem slightly bigger than the rear badge Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted October 30, 2015 I'm not at home at the moment . They are bigger than the rear badge . The front Golf badge is even bigger . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
